Reminded me of a previous short-lived campaign. IBM painted English cabs &
busses
in a multi-colored design, with "AS/400" all around, along with other media.

"You don't need an army to run the System"
At ease. The conflict is over. Our crack troops have now designed a total
system.
A system so reliable it doesn't need legions of technicians to run and
maintain it.
A system that will not put you on an annual software maintenance charge.
A system that fully integrates all the hardware and software components your
business
needs. For a consultant's report ......

(well, the annual software thing didn't stick, but the system still lives up
to the ad.
Also in the same campaign (i think),

You don't have to be a slave to the system.    (and more text)

The next generation won't need to change the system.   (and more text)

No  don't  tell me. Perhaps it is cause here  a few Major US cites someone
has been violating the law and  painting the i Series Nation  stuff on
public side walks.  It was  reported, that this  caused SUN to  offer up a
team of volunteers to clean the  streets of this violation.

what   wonder  occurred in the UK?

I don't expect it until July.  They probably don't even place the order
until they know how many to order.

Has anyone received their gift from IBM as of yet?
