RE: Letters to the Editors

Don,
        Did you ask them where the AS/400 Booth was?  I'd be interested to know 
their response.

Tough noogies!  They need to know that we DEMAND fairness and accuracy in
the press...not alot of rah-rah stufff

perhaps after they print a article or two... :)


Speaking of NT, I just got back from the Am. Lib. Assoc. meeting here in
DC...HUGE expo...ALL the software I saw was eunochs(!), DOS, '95 or NT
based...ZILCHOID running on a 400...even IBM didn't bring any 400
expertise to their booth.
...but then that's nothing new at expo's here in DC as we RARELY see 400
technology at the convention expo areas....  It's more than just a small
bit frustrating to hear IBM bombard the CURRENT 400 users with how great
the 400 is for net apps and NT...but you don't see THEM bringing the 400
to a expo that's using this technology...(Malcolm, are you listening????!)
I guess IBM doesn't fully believe the 400 is ready to compete here either.
