1: I do not despise the platform. I love it. I teach MI-classes at COMMON.

2: I do not not always like the way IBM (mis)handle the platform, both
when it comes to marketing and when it comes to treating loyal (and
captive!) customers in a reasonable manner.
Please don't confuse the two.

3: a lot of (mis)information and (wrong) hype about the AS/400 is out
there. Because the system is so closed it is hard for most people to
see through lies. With my small talent I try to set the record straight
at times. Some people don't like that, but (as it says in the CIA HQ
lobby: "ye shall know the truth, and truth shall set you free").
