"Try to keep one step ahead of the game" is the operative phrase.  So do you
want to have to check with them before applying PTF's?  And what if you
otherwise need a PTF but TigerTools has not figured out how to circumvent it
yet?  After all, it has taken some time for anyone to come out with this method.

Running a system where performance relies on an undocumented hack and which is
clearly against IBM's intentions is walking on thin ice in my book.  In fact,
I'm surprised that they even have the guts to market this.  I would hope they
have a law firm on retainer -- one would surmise IBM will not put this in the
same category as a product which eliminates 5250 data streams by using client
server.
