Bob,
How big of a machine is that (storage/memory/processor)? If it will fit
into a P8 4way box (I really bet it will depending on storage) you could
be looking at a box for $800/mo WITH maintenance for 36 months. One of
the other posts pointed out that maintenance on a P5 or P6 is going to
be more than that in the end.
Now Park Place and a couple of the other hardware maintenance outfits do
an OK job with the hardware and do it cheaper than IBM; until the CE
they send in replaces the wrong drive, then proceeds to pull the dead
drive out (live without the proper actions) and stuff a new drive in
it's place and call it done. Just to add to the anguish, he was an HP
UNIX guy, so that's how you replace a drive, right? Larry Bolhuis and
I spent 6 days recovering from that one in northern Indiana a few years
back. Cost the Director of IT her job. Third party maintenance is
cheap, not inexpensive. I've got lots more like that one to make the point.

You're probably not current with upgrades to your 3rd-party applications either-- most have given up support for 7.1 by now. Any accounting or payroll packages need annual updates for things like
W-2 forms (or is payroll out-sourced?)?
Payroll is outsourced. We JD Edwards World and we are just one release behind. Current version is A9.4 and we are on A9.3.1.
Thanks
