RE: AS400/iSeries/System i Install Base

Check the IT Jungle archives...I think they've hit on this a time or two -
or just email Tim offline over there and I'm sure he'll respond...

Keep in mind it all depends on how you calculate the numbers. Last I
checked, IBM insisted on using "systems shipped" as their base number- which
is incredibly misleading. I tend to prefer "systems under service" as a
more accurate, but not complete, number... Frankly, I'm not sure anyone
really knows exactly how many boxes are out there in production right
now....but there are some good estimates...

Hi

Out of interest, does anybody know roughly how many AS400's, iSeries and
System I's are installed worldwide? We were having a discussion and after
searching online couldn't come up with an answer.

Thanks

Jonathan
