 I am planning on purchasing RMS 2.0 for my 2 store operation with 2 cashiers
+ 1 back office computer at each location. I use a warehouse as HQ at this
point.

Please help me choose the right products at right price.

Thank you,

 Flash,

You can find RMS at all various prices from 50 or so dollars above the cost
from MSFT to the MSRP. Microsoft also requires a maintence fee per sales
lane of about $225(be aware of this the reseller may not tell you this,
until the last minute)

The back office computer should be hardware only as in RMS 2.0 the licensing
is figured by how many sales lanes you have.(previous Versions calculated
mgr as well).

You would want HQ Server at the warehouse, Prices on Hardware very greatly
and also vary depending on Quality of hardware. then there is the Warranty
on the hardware, 30 days 90 days etc. Keep this in mind as well.


Things to look at are support, Who is doing the support, the maintence fee
you pay to MSFT includes 6 incident's, per location, per year, and also
updates. If you choose a partner make sure its one that is a reputable one
that can support you for as long as your in business and wont just disappear
in a few months. Support is invaluable, if its not there or just doesnt meet
your needs it can be hell. There are many businesses that can get by
without support but there are even more that rely on having soomeone to call
to help them in a time of need.

Here is a site that has some question you should review
www.posformystore.com Theres several question(there is some advertising but
there is some good information).

To get a good idea of what you would really need I have more questions, If
you would like to you can contact me at Maurice at Americanretailsupply.com

Thanks

Previous versions required a license for SO Manager? I don't think so. What
do you mean by that?!
