RE: PTF needed for V3R7

[Neil Palmer/DPS <neilp@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's a result of a size limitation IBM sets on PTF downloads (total size 
of requested PTF + all pre-req & co-req PTF's that are shipped if not 
present).  Still a relevant limitation for all those downloading PTF's via 
dial-up modem.

Isn't that something?  You offer to take it electronically and they say 
no.
"We'd rather incur the expense of creating the media and shipping it to
you."  I've never understood that logic.  It's been awhile, but I think
that's a result of whether you have software maintenance on the machine.

BTW, Carl, did you also order the last cume for V3R7?  You might as well
try.
