KF.RR COUNTY COMPUTER HARDWARE UPGRADE 3-9-93 This recommendation to acquire computer hardware for Kerr County resulted from a Commissioners Court decision to move the Tax Collector to the Kerr County Administrative Building and the need to improve efficiency of the Courthouse system. Central to a decision on the kind of hardware is software. The Tax Collector has examined software different from that supplied by The Software Group (TSG) in terms of cost, support and quality. I have obtained similar information from software vendors and user. Our findings do not. present any reason to discontinue using TSG software. With the recommendation to use TSG software, we must acquire hardware that will drive the software and that will also utilize monitors and printers now in use. We also need a hardware that will give us expandability, quality system software and flexibility in an open systems environment. Hardware that will satisfy these requirements are as follows: Tax Col:ector IBM RISC System 6000/340 7.6 MB RAM Memory 1 GB Disk 16 User Configuration '""' 525 MB Tape Drive 3.5 Diskette Remote Diagnostic Modem System Console UPS Courthouse IBM RISC System 6000/30 64 MB RAM Memory 2 GB Disk 64 iJser Configuration 8 mm Tape Drive 1/4" Tape Drive 3.5 Diskette System Console iJP S OgDgR Np, 2]328 APPROVAL OF ADVERTISING FOR BIDS ANp PROPOSAT~ FOR A ~ ~ COLT.~TOR SYSTII`1 FOR THE TAX AS March 9,1993 i i i Vol S, Page 888
