This may seem simplistic, but if I were in this scenario, on which side of the MSP / VAR would I stand?
A person hires me to help spec out a server for their office. I'm paid to help them determine how much RAM, storage, processors, etc. they need.
This part is clear, I'm being paid for advice; thus, MSP.
A point of clarity - advising only this is not being an MSP - you'r not managing anything (managed service provider). ITSP or Consultancy would be better terms for this portion... heck - the whole thing, including recommending a hardware vendor, because again, you're not managing anything.
True. I ought to have used those other terms.
