AS/400 Advertising (was Re: FW: Rows of NT vs 1 N-way)

[DAsmussen@xxxxxxx]

Joe,

Most of the rest of the M*A*S*H crew did, at the dawn of "departmental"
computing.  This is the kind of advertising I'd like to see IBM do again for
the AS/400, although I'd settle for something in a trade rag that "upper
management" reads as more "bang for the buck".  Forget "PC Magazine", "Byte"
and "ComputerWorld" -- give me something in "Forbes", "Fortune", or "The Wall
Street Journal"...

JMHO,
