George, 

Wouldn't TCO depend on the type of equipement as well as intangibles like 
people time, PDUs, cables, switches, facility and so forth?

My understanding of TCO is:  TCO tries to quantify the financial impact of 
deploying an information technology product over its life cycle. These 
technologies include software and hardware, and training.


Or are you trying to find something else?

If I gave you a ballpark it would be 80 gagillion dollars, because I have no 
reference to hardware or end of life, or other elements of such and estimate.
