Re: Help Save the iSeries

Jeff,

I say:
Let them go NT. I'd like to see them go NT. That way, my AS/400 client will
gain the competitive advantage over your NT client. ;-)

Seriously though, just show them Ops Navigator and the IFS, and I'm sure
they'll change their minds. They don't need to go NT anymore, to get the GUI
crap, and a file system that lacks management controls. :-)


Just my .01 (AUS$0.02)
