The MTBF on telecom equipment is so long that after the first user tires of it or grows out of it, there is plenty of time for a new user to get tired out it. Either use a local teleconnect company to find a switch or call 1-800-322-5156 to get a free subscription to {Telecom Gear} to find equipment or a used equipment supplier. There is also an annual article in {Teleconnect} that covers used equipment and their suppliers. We bought a Mitel Super10 years ago from a local teleconnect company and couldn't be happier. It is an 8 by 16 PBX. Carl Wright | Lynn-Arthur Associates, Inc. Internet: wright@ais.org | 2350 Green Rd., #160 Voice: 1 313 995 5590 EST | Ann Arbor, MI 48105
