Re: NBA advertisements: middleware?

My gosh guys, cut IBM some slack here, huh?  If your job is selling AS/400s
then you have a nice new tool in your sales kit:  "Did you see those new IBM
ads? Well, I am here to show you what they're talking about.  See this baby?
Its the iServer and it can do what you want done.  Can we talk?"

No user really gives a damn about the name of the box, or the color of the
racing stripe,  Me? I'm glad for those ads.  What I liked most was it talked
about computiung and never once showed or said "Windows ..."
