penny wise, and pound foolish comes to mind here. that older server probably has 1-2 single core processors, too, right? a 2 socket modern 2U could virtualize a dozen of those and outperform each one.
This may be true in your environment but I have hardware that is capable of doing the job that I am looking for so why should I buy new hardware? I would never get approval for the purchase because there is no way that I could justify the expenditure.
