If we were going to put used iseries servers into our new office, I think that it would help us save thousands on our start up cost. I had heard an associate of mine talking about how it would be smart to do this for new companies and I just kind of wondered if it would work for us or not.

I called the computer guy who used to fix the equipment at my old job and asked his opinion. I was sure that he would be able to answer this question for me. If buying one of the new pseries servers would be beneficial, then that is what I will do but if I can save some money, I would really like to.

It is going to cost thousands anyway and I would love to save a few to have in case something unforeseen arises during the first few months. I had priced a used iseries server and the new pseries servers to compare the two. I can get the same in both but one is priced thousands higher than the other.

If the computer guy ever calls back then I will leave the decision up to him. I trust him to not rip me off and to give good advice for our new office.
