The bad:
%u2022Quality does not come cheap
%u2022Current Intel processors would likely give better performance

First point is obvious, the second is a matter of opinion. AMD produces fine processors that are more than a match for those made by Intel. Why else would HP release this fine specimen? They lead the world in server production and the DL585 is one of many reasons why.
