John Sorry, I was just pointing out (and I may be mistaken here, please correct me if I'm wrong) that the COMMON is an annual meeting of people primarily interested in IBM solutions, and technology. Their solutions to problems involve mostly solutions, software and hardware that relate to IBM tools. So then, in order to guage the relative success, or lack thereof, of a 'Luggable-Huggable', one need look no further than the darlings at COMMON. Christ, am I the only person on this mailing list, beside Syd, that thinks out of the Blue box! 'Everyone at COMMON' is not the whole enchelada,,,excuse my Mexican.. Ken If they had 'lugged' that monstrosity to a Computer Expo here, the response would probably have been comedic. -----Original Message----- From: jpcarr@tredegar.com [mailto:jpcarr@tredegar.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 1:02 PM To: midrange-l@midrange.com Subject: RE: Cheaper Servers? - Been there - done that >Typical IBM thinking , a portable OS/400 for IBM people, in an enclosed world. >COMMON ....bad name, s/b NARROW Ken You must have mis-read my post. It was not for IBM people. It was merely initially displayed at COMMON's expo. It was available to everyone. "Luggable-Huggable" was a nick name users gave it. NOT IBM.
