Maybe it shows ibm in front of the end of the proprietary model. imho -- Stephane Le samedi, 11 jan 2003, à 16:32 Europe/Zurich, Leif Svalgaard a écrit :
From: Al Barsa <barsa@barsaconsulting.com>IMHO, the interactive tax was a misguided thought that IBM had to try (and
failed) to make people push to client server. As it made the platform
uncompetitive, IBM dumbed up and did away with it.
but Al, you used to say that WITHOUT the interactive tax, the AS/400 was UNPROFITABLE and since IBM was in it for the money, the AS/400 would die. Not the same thing. I don't disagree with your statement above. It shows great moral clarity.
