You don't mention your location.

If in the US, or perhaps elsewhere, talk to David at Island Computers.  He's got 
plenty of used stuff, licenses, warranty, and such.  Could be rather inexpensive.

Any itanic is going to give you a significant performance boost.  We've got all 
our customers on them.

VSI is the future of VMS, that's who you need to talk to about the future, 
licenses, support, and such.

How many DS15s you planning to unload?  Location?
