RE: Unix

Alan,

Can't agree more...  Mike Wills had some great suggestions.  That CD that
you can order through the iNation (I think) may be worth a $20 investment.
I've not looked at it, yet, but I think it presents a hard-hitting overview,
to counter the CONs and inSULTs against the iSeries.  The fact that the CD's
coming from someone other than IBM should be a big plus...

| Hi Alan
| Can't answer that one I'm afraid.  We're both in similar lines of

| put everyone on the same platform' moment or the board have been CONned
| and inSULTed (if you know what I mean...)
