Are there any discount site online?  Also is there a chart or
something that shows the difference between the DM, the WS, and
the GS versions?  I know the DM for for developers and Ws is meant
to be a web server and GS is meant to be a group server.  I am
looking for something that provides package by package information.

Thanks in advance,

When I got my netwinder from hcc they had student prices if you happen to be
a student.  They also sold me mine without a hard drive.  I then installed
my own laptop drive which saved me some more money.  If you install your own
hard drive, make sure to ask for the ide connector.  I think I ended up
getting an extra 32megs of ram and 2 gigs of disk space for the same price
by doing it this way.  As for the packages, I don't know.

     They wouldn't give you the time of day.
     They said you weren't a player.
     They wouldn't accept your calls.
     They are holding on line three.

Try sending an email to [email-masked].  They would know.  This is a developer
site.

There is no such chart that I know of.  The DM is basically a RedHat
distribution (build 15 when released will be RedHat 6.0).  The WS and GS have
only the software required to fulfill their stated purpose.  They may also have
some commercial software installed upon them.  The GS has some commercial
document management software for instance.

Their are product pages on www.rebel.com:

DM: http://www.rebel.com/products/clienttech/clie_nwdm.htm
GS: http://www.rebel.com/products/servertech/net-gs.htm
WS: http://www.rebel.com/products/servertech/net-ws.htm

The base hardware for these products is all the same.  The differences are in
the amount of memory, amount of video memory, and the size of the disk, and the
software installed.  All the software for the DM is freely available and will
run on any of the above, though most GS/WS machines have too small a disk to
hold a DM disk image.
