Not all clouds are white and fluffy, some can get quite stormy. This one seems to have a hurricane blowing by it at the moment.
The only thing you trust a cloud to do is to rain on your parade.
So if someone breaks in to your house and shoots you because your interlock failed to let you shoot the intruder first, can your survivors sue the interlock manufacturer...?
It has to be 100% or nothing.
This has to hold a standard you would expect out of a seat belt, motorcycle helmet, or life vest.
I have never had problems with Avocent equipment - they use to be Cybex - changed their name a few years ago.

If you are using a newer name brand server I would just use the remote management card. RSA/iLO
HP/Compaq had the Remote Insight Board Lights-Out Edition or RIBLOE or RILOE. Newer servers from HP and IBM have it integraded on the motherboard. IBM calls it a RSA (Remote Supervisor Adapter), and HP calls it a iLO (Integrated Lights Out).

hp use to sell these as servers - they sell them as desktops now... http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/pscmisc/vac/us/en/s m/desktops/blade/bc1000_overview.html
hp has been selling these for years. I guess IBM is still trying to catch up. http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/pscmisc/vac/us/en/s m/desktops/blade/bc1000_overview.html
They would be good for a call center or somewhere where you did not need the power and/or expandibility of a full PC.
