Re: Helas another nail in the RPG coffin

Vern,

I am a Kid with an Accouting Degree, but I am getting my RPG Certificate
from IBM AI tomorrow.
So my comment was based on accounting principles and my understanding of
TCO.

I have no clue how much a IBM i costs, or of the terms available.
Do you perhaps have a link to a i pricelist?

Regards,
Christoff

Seems the up-front cost can be deferred with leases. No need to pay it
all on the first day, right?

Bill sometimes cashflow is a problem and a big up front cost is not
possible. Sometimes managements' are tied and they don't have a choice.
