I thought the specialty engines stayed whether you ugraded your box or
replaced it - that once you paid for them, you never had to pay again unless
you added more of them.
No one answered my original question of what percent savings there is in
upgrading versus buying a new box. Maybe thats some of that secret IBM
information that you actually have to be buying a processor before IBM will
tell you.

Eric,
all specialty engines stay, you don't pay for them again. By "stay" I
mean, they will be in an upgraded box without charging you for them
again.

Timothy,
I am curious as to what the savings are in upgrading your old computer
versus just buying the new model. What are the approximate savings as a
percent? Another thought, if you upgrade your current box, you can't sell
it. Granted, the value of an older box may not be worth trying to find a
buyer, but upgrading removes that option.
