However the specs of the servers can make the difference between $2000 or $5000.

With generic servers this should be fairly cheap, if your friend needs dual quad cores with 32 Gb memory and several 15K SAS disks on-board it will obviously be more expensive

You can get unmanaged Dual Cores for $99-150.00 in the NL as an example.

Full management? Depending on the company $100-150.00 added per server.

Need a Quad? Add $50-100.00. More RAM? Keep going.

You catch the drift chief....

i totally get your points, i am only that vague since i dont know his setup in detail.

but - lets say 30 x $250 for a midsize machine managed = $7500

and 100 mbit should be nowadays something llike $200 - maybe max $500 if it's high quality bandwidth, right?

since he mentioned to me "guaranteed" bandwidth - does that make a difference? compared to shared? or isnt everything shared anyways?
