BARTON <br />Clerk of Circuit Court <br />P. O. Box 1028 <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32961-1028 <br />To: <br />From: <br />T1rLq@brie&e .49916gp§9A§No <br />The Honorable Board of County Commissioners <br />Jeffrey K. Barton, Clerk of the Circuit Court <br />Subject: Computer Purchase <br />I am requesting the purchase of an IBM AS/400 to <br />replace the IBM System 38 computer. <br />When the System 38 was purchased in 1980, I anticipated <br />a useful life of seven to ten years. Over the last <br />nine years, many different applications have been put <br />on the System 38 such as building permits and inspections, <br />fleet management, purchasing, personnel, Board minutes <br />index, recording index, criminal court, traffic court, <br />child support, budget, welfare, probation and jury <br />selection. Presently, we have one hundred fifty <br />devices attached to the System 38 and anticipate <br />adding another twenty to thirty devices over the next <br />eighteen months. The System 38 has been expanded to <br />its maximum capability in terms of response time and <br />is close to the maximum capacity for storage of infor- <br />mation. The need for additional storage is critical <br />and it would cost approximately $26,000.00 to add more <br />storage to the System 38. I do not feel that <br />increasing the capacity of the System 38 is a wise use <br />of County funds. <br />MAY Boor FSU 1,30 <br />
