Dear Loyd,

Then look to outsourcing the requirement to some other country...like 
India.

It will be cheaper and resource also of quality.


With warm regards

Our current development "environment" is the same as production. Must be 
very
careful regarding testing, etc.

We're looking at upgrading from our 720 to an 810 (yep, missed the 10% 
off)
with LPAR. The real savings here, in addition to a separate testing 
partition,
is the software and maintenance costs. (Some third party vendors are 
charging
for maintenance in the second partition, but it's offset by the reduced 
IBM
software subscription costs, tier drop from P20 to P10, etc.).
