For two years, I was able to have the repair guy just fix my servers and get us back online for a couple more weeks. The last time that they went down, he could not fix them and told me that it would be cheaper to just buy new ones. He actually told me all about a company that offered refurbished used hp servers that were just like new ones without the big price tag.

I thanked my repair guy for the tip and wondered where I was going to get the money for any kind of new or used hp servers. Our company’s sales had been down for the second month in a row and I knew that taking any money that was budgeted for other things would be a recipe for disaster.

I went to the shareholder and explained that without new or used proliant servers, we would lose even more money than we were losing now. They all agreed to move some money around in the budget to make it possible for me to purchase the used proliant servers and pay to have them be installed.

The whole ordeal took less than two weeks and for some reason, it seems that our sales have turned around and our office is running all over trying to keep up.
