From: Steve Richter

When did IBM mgmt lose confidence in the ability of its own employees to
write great software? IBMers had done a good job creating ILE. But mgmt
for some reason halted any followup improvements.

Steve, I know your heart is usually in the right place, but this is kind of
silly. i5/OS continues to outpace anything else out there in terms of pure
business operating environments.

IBM's recent push has been virtualization, and to that end if you've seen
their virtual LPAR capability, you'll see that it's every bit as powerful as
VMWare.

On the UI side, they've been working through their own internal warfare and
I think they've finally settled into a single UI paradigm, and it's largely
based on the Eclipse rich client.
