Interesting. With Power 7, he'd better have his ANZOBJCVN's all cleaned
up. There's something he can do while waiting for the new machine.
Why the SSD's? Speaking from a shop that spent dough on SSD's but would
have been better off spending the dough on HA Journal performance.
Don't assume that you can figure out disk with a formula like this:
(disk size of all current 170's combined)
minus
(OS size of all current 170's other than one)
minus
Application program library size times number of 170's minus one.
(Assuming that the application library is always the same code.)
and end up saving all this disk space.
It just always seems to take more, much more. And it's not all just
bloatware from release upgrades.
Much like PC's have their swap file size, the i has some pretty amazing
temporary storage areas that vary on system size. I think 75GB in temp
file size on a 170 would have had you tossing your lunch.
