AS/400
Every modern business uses data, and to be competitive requires internet connectivity and all the exciting features found with that. In an effort to save money many enterprises will begin with a very small tech footprint, meaning, getting just the essential high tech equipment.
One way to do with would be to purchase a refurbished AS/400 or two. Just as good as brand new but significantly cheaper. This allows you to have hardware of a mid range IT department with less cost than your average corporate data center. Its certainly a smart way to handle that.
If you do not have an online presence you will lose a hefty portion of your market, and if your organizations network is distributed you will require some servers and properly configured data lines. It is possible to host your own web server, on your own location. Soem businesses do, others just buy hosting. Either method is acceptable.
