Hello Alexei,

I'm thinking about an upgrade now.  But I have to tell you that you
are just plain wrong.  I would never buy a chevy! ;)  So, what can I upgrade
to?  From the notes I have seen, (and by the way, I'm sorry I started this
on Friday. I should have waited until this morning, since I don't work over
the weekend.) it looks like the next model up that can reliably run the
combination I have on my machine is the 720.  Is that correct?  That would
seem to be out of my price range.

So, what are my options?  I could get a "Bumblebee" server and start my
AS/400 farm.  That also seems like an expensive route to take.  One
AS/400 for each process I run.  I really think I need to keep Domino
off of the production box.  Lotus has told me there is a bug in the
version I have but they can not figure it out yet. (Sharon, if you
are out there, I really appreciate all that you are trying to do.) I'm
guessing that if I put Domino (for OS/400) on any box, the way it is now,
I'm still going to have the same problem.

Did you ever think about upgrade ?
I like this style of thinking - if my one ton Dodge truck can't carry 5 ton
load, then I will scrap it and buy one ton Chevy truck instead. Why not buy
5-ton truck ?
