RE: V5R3 and Hardware Requirements - iSeries Access Support

The thing that's unclear here is are they speaking of OS versions or Client
Access versions. I would guess, and it's only a guess, that they will
support Client Access V5R2 on Win98 running against a V5R3 box. What they
won't support is Client Access V5R3 on a Win98 box.

Thanks Steve.

Did anyone else see this little tidbit?

" iSeries Access, June 2002:
IBM plans to remove the support of the Windows 98 and Windows Me operating
systems from the iSeries Access for Windows client. iSeries Access for
Windows on Windows 98 and Me will continue to be supported in V5R2, but not
in subsequent releases. In subsequent releases, iSeries Access for Windows
will not install on Windows 95, 98, or Me operating systems. "

Am I alone in thinking ending support for W98 is a bit premature?

Bill
