RE: V5R3

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

I don't know why the security, but I respect it.

Many people are always looking for an excuse to delay upgrading their 
systems.  And if you tell them that there are great things coming in the 
next release of hardware and/or software, they just gives them more reason 
to delay.  Folks, there are always great things coming regarding hardware 
and/or software.  Businesses can't afford to wait.  One of my favorite 
analogies is this.  The French had a fairly good antitank weapon.  But 
they didn't put it into mass production because another one was just about 
ready.  Unfortunately, during that delay, Germany rolled over the country.

Please leave the analogy at that.  I don't want to get into any political 
discussions about the French.  And/or if the lack of that one weapon was 
the sole deciding factor.

You gotta love this list. 

OK, How can I word this so the Lawyers on this list will answer with even 
more vague answers. Send it to me off list if you want. and Paul I will be 

at COMMON but I would like to know ahead of time. Why the big Fuss from 
IBM. Maybe they know that as soon as they announce it everyone that has a 
Unix box, pc server or running on an older version of OS/400 will have 
their phone lines bogged down with orders. <VBG>
