RE: IBM Cancels AS/400 Specific Advertising

Greetings:

In Dallas during the last 2 days I have heard 3 AS/400 specific advertisements 
on FM radio.  It starts out as an AS/400e advertisement, then hits all of the e 
product line, then talks about Java and e business and scalability.

Subject: IBM Cancels AS/400 Specific Advertising


Hi,

I have it on good authority that IBM has decided to cancel the specific
AS/400 advertising, and replace it with "Server Brand Advertising" designed
to push Netfinity and RS/6000.  The new ads will have the same handwritten
look and feel as the AS/400 specific ads had.

Whoever made this decision would seem to have an IQ so low that when you
square it, you get a lower number.

Al
