I would say that the major costs are software licenses. Hence with the given information you can't calculate TCO.

Once again, this is infrastructure and operations only, exclusive of applications or development. Ballpark would be fine. -- George Henke (C) 845 401 5614 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
