This could then be a problem for me. The LSPR link has the smallest 2964-401 
with 1 CP and 31 MSU
My current z9-L03 is 28 MSU, but I am capping at 16. But my major vendor (SAG) 
doesn't accept subcapacity.
And, I was seriously "burnt" when we last had a uniprocessor. The smallest 
multi is 60 MSU

My thoughts lately have been that our prepaid maintenance on the z9 would be 
expiring about the same timeframe as a zNext-BC
