RE: Raid problems

Booth,

All of the employees of the firm that M$ hired to replace their 23 400's,
magically seem to work for the "outsourced" company.

What a coincidence!  This company (at the time) seemed to come up with an
identical 23 systems!

"Remember what system M$ uses!"

Al, what system would that be?  This sounds like a veiled reference to
AS/400s owned by Microsoft. If it is could you please provide evidence
other
than the boilied and re-boiled rumors that have been bandied about for some
years now.  Dr. Frank got his knuckles slapped for repeating rumors.   It
is
time to bury the rumor as it serves no purpose and makes us look as bigoted
as us OS/2 bigots.

I think that a third party's hardware could absolutely cause more object
damage than an IBM drive. The third party's merely mimic IBM as best they
can, they truly have no idea of what IBM does under the covers.

Save money - have a pleasant day.

The reason that you buy an AS/400 is to get an integrated solution from one
vendor, that when it breaks, you say FIX IT, and they do. If you want to
screw around with third party equipment, go to Windoze. Remember what
system M$ uses!
