I'll also add that I've seen many well intentioned good folks spend a huge wad of money on brand new servers with tons of memory and very high performance SANs, etc, etc, only to find out that they don't get very much out of it because of the way code (front-end and at the database level) was written. It can be a real killer because, typically, you only have money to buy new hardware or fix old code but not both.
