Hoi, We can even sell our servers to the leasing company and get all this money and realise our budget. Because it will be obvious that we can do the same trick again next year, right ?
Actually consider the original proposal for setting aside money for leaner times. With the systems that we have we can maintain our current requirements and "only" have to pay for bandwidth and hosting. I think our current system of buying our servers, and not pay the leasing company overhead, is right in the middle between these two extremes.
Thanks, GerardM

If we want to sustain current growth (or anything close to it), capital expenditure is *not* optional.
No, it isn't. Servers can be leased.
