RE: Buying 170 - What's it worth, what's it missing?

Hi Steve,

Yes, $10K will effect cash flow but bottom line, uncle sam will get half of
that anyway.

Most of the used 170s I've seen on ebay and elsewhere are pretty much
low-end, stripped-down boxes without the LPPs required for development. It's
the size of this box and the availability of the LPPs that make this deal
seem attractive to me.

Can you supply me with some references as to where to look for these
systems?

Kind regards,

Brian

10K is a lot of money.  Based on what I have learned recently about the
market value of used as400s, I would contact leasing companies and ask what
they want for 400s coming off their lease.
