<<Hi all, I would like to invite u all to contribute to my mission of, listing out all possible Dis-advantages of AS/400 when compared to other conventional platforms like Mainframes, RS/6000 with AIX, VAX etc., ********************************************************************* S B H Prasad Wipro Infotech, 3rd Floor, Laxmi buildings, Begumpet, Hyderabad. Ph# 040- 866 008 Extn. 4320>> I don't think I would be in a position to comment on the actual deficiencies of the platform or operating characteristics of the AS/400 since I'm not directly involved. However, I do sense a general distaste/regret about the lack of attention paid to the platform by IBM. I suspect that the AS/400 is not IBM's number one profit maker although it must surely present a very positive contribution to IBM's bottom line. The general consensus seems to be that IBM has not marketed and supported their own machines as strongly as they could have. Based on radio and print ads I have heard and seen, I think this may be stepping up a bit, but IBM has clearly done a poor job in general of promoting the platform so far. Once again, some perceptions from my clients.
