I feel the pain.  Heaven forbid, if you have an older Model 170, 6XX,
and soon 7XX system, and would like to upgrade to a newer 8XX system.
The cost from SSA is prohibitive.  I wonder if IBM knows about this,
since they are "partners".  It may be worth a call to your IBM marketing
rep. or BP to find out who to contact at IBM.

Subject: Moving On to Another Software System


For those of you that haven't checked recently, SSA is no longer
insisting on 10 thousand dollars for a new software key - they are now
demanding the restoration of software maintenance and the payment of a
penalty that could equal the revenue lost by not keeping maintenance
current.  It is due to their unrelenting attitude and the final price
tag that one company is looking to move away from BPCS and on to another
package.

So, my question to you is:  If you were in the same predicament, which
package would you prefer to move on to or what package have you heard
good things about?  Let's assume that staying on the AS/400 is a
requirement.

(I strongly recommend everyone not on current maintenance to contact SSA
and find out what the impact would be to your company.  This issue could
have an extreme impact on the viability of your company and no one
should encounter this situation unprepared).

Bill
