Re: Intro to the AS400 for the non-technical person

[Bob Larkin <blarkin@xxxxxx>]

Bob,
I hope you are using this "sales" person as the front "man" to qualify
customers and get in the door.
Anyway, check out  AS/400
Online Library (//as400bks.rochester.ibm.com).  Or look at the
site map for  IBM AS/400 Site
(www.as400.IBM.com). You can download PFD format, and they print just like
the manual, or you can view them on screen. There are also HTML versions
for viewing on screen.

Bob,

what are you looking for?  You trying to give a sales person a small
working vocab so that they can wing their way into a door?  Or are you
trying to give a "expo gal" a vocab to draw folks into the booth to be
pounced on by the spiders?

I'm not going to start a rant here, but I'm not sure I would like what
I'ld be getting into here dude...I REALLY HATE IT when someone purports to
know something just to draw me into a sales pitch...  You'll find that
most serious techies/managers will know their stuff and see right through
that facade...so be careful there...
