Hey Don, once Dell buys the AS/400 group from IBM, I'd suggest you consider
a new career move to Texas.  ;-)

A shot of a computer room with several CRT's in view, each obviously
attached to a server.

A person is standing there watching the room, when in runs a cohort.

Person who ran in: "I just found out! A virus is on our network!"

Watcher: "Wha? Think it will affect our servers?"

Person: "I hope not..."

One by one, moving from left to right, a "blue screen" appears on each
server.

Blink -- BSOD
Blink -- BSOD
Blink -- BSOD


about ten times.

Then the last screen is show. The viewer waits, but nothing happens. The
camera pans down, and there ... on the floor ... beneath the CRT ... sits an
AS/400.

VOICEOVER: "AS/400: The most reliable server on the planet"
