We opted for cheaper hardware, and we postponed our salaries for months in
order to survive.
Instead of buying nice 19" rack industrial rated PCs, we used a 19" tray
with an office computer on it instead. Instead of using 19" rack monitors,
we used 14" office monitor screwed somehow into an aluminum sheet, which
we then screwed into the 19" rack. And so on.
Cheap solutions.
At the end I found another job and jumped boat. Finding jobs is not always
easy or even possible. If you have a job that pays your needs, count your
blessings.
