The company I work for develops complex technical software that operates on relatively large datasets (read: guzzles CPU/RAM like no one's business!). In our situation we require the absolute latest and greatest in hardware and we don't neccessarily know what platforms will be supported even 1 year in advance.
For us, purchasing a $1M servers for QA/customer support efforts only to find out 2 years later that:
A) The platform will no longer be supported.
- or -
B) It's now too small to run our software with the datasets that our customers are using. ... just doesn't make economic sense.
