RE: Software Vendors (And US too) - A small rant

Trevor Perry,
Thanks for your interesting observation. Our users refer to ours as the
JDE server (JD Edwards), as JDE is the primary application on our IBM i.


In my sessions, I ask this question: Should the users even know the
server name/brand?
No one calls gmail by its server name - everyone uses the name of the
application. So, if we were to > attempt to educate the users that there
is no longer an AS/400, shouldn't we take this opportunity to > start
recognizing the applications by the name of the application, rather than
the hardware or the OS?
