Re: Scalability

IBM should take these words that Joe wrote and actually market it this way,  
they'll never do it, but you speak the truth!! Well said!! We Have 160 AS400  
systems up and down the east coast and we have about 15 or so AIX systems, 
p690,  etc. Our AS400 staff is 3 people, the aix staff is 3 times that. We are  
constantly reminded that the company direction is AIX and Oracle even with the  
constant backup, files system issues, etc. that the AIX system continue to  
have....... back on the poor old AS400 side, they just run, and run, and run,  
maybe close to 99% uptime, worst failure cache battery!!!
 
I have to out this back on IBM for not wanting to "hurt" the other systems  
by actually marketing the AS400 system like it should be
 
 
Now I'll get off the soap box!!!
