RE: CD-R & DVD-R for the iSeries and Office Vision, 2 seperate questi ons

Hi Neil,
        when I asked IBM this question about a year ago, I was told
emphatically that they had no plans for a AS/400 direct-attach CD-witer -
period.  Since, at the time, a DVD writer was not an option (for me) I never
pressed them on DVD.  This was, I was told, a marketing issue, not a
technical one.

questi ons


Hello everyone,

I've have a couple of queries to follow up on and thought I might get better
feed back from this group than I have been recieving from IB....

Does anyone know if there are plans to introduce a directly attached CD
writer and/or DVD writer for the as/400, if so will there be OS/400 or
hardware minimum requirements, i.e. V5R1 on the new 2/8xx series ?

My other question is someone has told me its roumered that Office Vision
will be re-introduced at V5R2, is there any truth in this ?

thanks all

Neil
