Sara and Kate were thinking about opening up a coffee house in Chicago. They had no idea what kind of computer equipment they were going to need to have it be a wireless coffee house, but they started to figure it out. They hired a consultant to help them design the inside and out of the business.

The computer guy that was hired by the consultant recommended that they go with either one of the iseries servers or one of the pseries servers. Whichever one they chose, he assured them that it would meet all of their needs. He also told them that they could save thousands by installing a used refurbished server.

Sara was all for saving money but Kate was a little leery of buying anything that was used. She wanted it to work, and used equipment did not always work. In the long run, they decided to go with the iseries servers over the pseries servers.

Sara got her wish, and they purchased a used but refurbished server for the coffee house. The put in an additional four thousand worth in necessary computer upgrades. It was possible to get wireless from anywhere in the building. The server has not given Sara and Kate any problems in the three years they have been open.
