Can you think of something at all that is POSITIVE about IBM i? Something we

Something that IBM i has that no one else can match?
You mean like DB2 built into the operating system at a very low level?
You mean like high reliability? You mean like being able to take
programs written and compiled on component-CPU boxes running V2R3, over
a decade ago, and stick them on the latest boxes with radically
different architecture, and have them Just Work, without having to
recompile, much less re-code? You mean like having hot-swappable hard
drives that can be organized in mirrored pairs or parity groups?
Or maybe the fact that it's good enough to survive for so long in the
face of hostility from every possible direction, including other
divisions of the company that makes it?
