Hee hee!

Since I'm the one who said this, Murali, I think it needs some
explaining.  The iSeries is definitely the most scalable midrange
platform available (someone can correct me if I'm wrong).  It's
certainly more scalable than any Unix platform, which is the context in
which I made the statement.

Also, while the S/390 may be able to handle a larger workload, the
iSeries can start at a much lower end than the 390 (again, anybody feel
free to correct me).  If what you want is a box that can work with a
small business and then scale up to a Fortune 100 company, nothing
compares to the iSeries.
