used Power 8 hardware...
</snip>
will be a lot rarer than a used 2016 Cadillac.
People tend to hold on to their Power equipment for at least a couple of
years.

And, yeah, that license of IBM i... You might want to research that before
scouring Ebay for used Power 8's.

IDK if you have much familiarity with AIX but my boss felt that buying a
licence of AIX to run on Power was chump change compared to what licences
of IBM i cost. And then there's SQL, compilers, etc. All sold
separately.
Really starts to make idevcloud look good. I get no money from them.

See the command WRKLICINF on your system.
