Our school has been using pSeries Servers since it inaugurated its IT room barely a decade ago. It was actually a very big decision that the administration, which I am heading, made. Our school, although it is private, is just earning enough; enough to compensate the faculty and staff, and provide some basic services to the students. So when the administration saw the need to build in IT center in the school in order to provide our students adequate knowledge on the basic of computer use and other similar technologies. It was a difficult decision because we were not sure if our income will be enough to build a new building, and purchase a certain number of computer units. Fortunately, we were able to make it possible, and now, our students are having the opportunity of learning basic IT skills.

As a matter of fact, we were able to really economize this venture because we were advised to buy Used pSeries servers instead of buying brand new ones. Of course we made sure that these used servers are refurbished professionally, so we won’t encounter any problems regarding our units’ performances in the future. And I am very happy that with regular maintenance, we haven’t had any problems with them so far.
