Book Description
This IDC study provides residual value forecasts and current fair market value data for IBM's iSeries and AS/400 systems. The study explains the current market conditions that are affecting the value of used hardware on the secondary market and the future technological changes that will further affect these values. We explore the factors that have an impact on the server market and the price/performance increases expected over the next several years. This information helps those who invest in iSeries hardware assess their risk and provides guidance on the amount of residual value that is expected to be realized at the end of the lease term.
"The introduction of the Power5 in the iSeries lineup will have a significant impact on residual values between now and January 2005. If IBM's pricing strategy with its pSeries line is any indication, the new models will offer approximately 50% better performance at the same price point as current systems. Depending on when customers adopt the latest technology, more supply of 800, 810, and 825 equipment will enter the secondary market, driving down pricing," said Jennifer Koppy, senior research analyst with IDC's Leasing Evaluation Service.
