Lief,

Actually the $11k is not a practical cost. To fit the
270 with the high end dual processor, 420 gb or disk,
expansion cabinets for the disk, the relevant adaptors
you are probably in the $160k to $200k region depending
on discount. The software alone on that box for standard
dev tools, OS/400, and client access is $70k undiscounted.

Regards

Konrad
