I am of the understanding that IP Designer is $6995 list price and is server based not workstation based. I've confirmed this with both my business partner and IBM iSeries representative. "Infoprint Designer is a client-server product which has a single charge unit. The charge unit is the number of installed licenses of the product. Only one license can be installed on a single iSeries Server." Product ID . . . . . . . . : 5733ID1 License term . . . . . . . : V4R5M0 Feature . . . . . . . . . . : 5050 Description . . . . . . . . : IBM Infoprint Designer for AS/400 Compliance type . . . . . . : *KEYED Usage type . . . . . . . . : *CONCURRENT Usage limit . . . . . . . . : *NOMAX Last update . . . . . . . . : 03/05/04 08:00:56 Threshold . . . . . . . . . : *NOMAX I'm not sure where people are getting the idea of $5000 per workstation. $6995 might still be salty for someone wanting to not do a lot but it's definitely cheaper than $10,000 or $15,000 or $20,000 or $25,000 that some people might think it will cost them.

Submit a Design Change Request. There are a lot of things that are two broken apart. Some parts of i5/os sound to me like descriptions of mainframe OS and DB software on other platforms - a bunch of pick and choose rigamarole. Why is facsimile Support/400 a separate package and not just part of i5/os? Isn't that included in the OS on many other platforms? Maybe if they included it with the OS the support would be better. What other part of the OS do you call for support on and ALWAYS are put into a call back queue regardless of the time of day? Rob Berendt
