Anne-

Will there be a MauveStreak program for those of us on soon to be obsolete
larger 7xx servers?

Any upgrade option I see actually requires an expensive INCREASE in
interactive CPW.  So much for incentive to move to new technology.

It's a shame too, because 7xx's were killer machines.  They should be able
to run our businesses for years.  We just can't put any new disk technology
on it, or fibre controllers for our tape drives, or gigabit ethernet.  And
who knows how much of our SPD stuff will be desupported in V5R3...

If a customer (hypothetically speaking) bought a 740 12-way fully loaded
with "interactive feature" as a hedge against growth, is there an upgrade
path that takes us to new technology without paying boatloads of cash for
much, much more CPW and interactive CPW?

If not, can anyone recommend a large tar pit for our SPD technology and
Interactive Feature cards?

Andy Nolen-Parkhouse said regarding the GreenStreak promotion:  I think the
goal is to give those existing AS/400 users who won't upgrade to newer
technology an incentive.

You are right on target, Andy!
