Re: Next Version of JDE World requires i 7.1

There are two sides to every coin. For companies who have no need or
budget to upgrade their hardware, Oracle is effectively killing off app
upgrades for those running on pre-Power5 hardware. I wonder how many of
them will stop paying Oracle maintenance fees.

Some other vendor years ago announced they were going to stay more current
at their national user meeting. The audience stood and cheered. They now
had a 'business' reason to get their management to upgrade. The vendor
was shocked. They expected much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

It's nice to see a vendor moving you forward...instead of holding you
back...even if it is Oracle...

"Schiff highlighted three major enhancement areas with World A9.3. For
starters, the new application requires IBM i 7.1. Going forward, World
will not run on anything older than what is now the current release of
the IBM i OS."
