Hi, We started to vocally complain about the lack of AS/400 marketing in the Fall of 1992 at COMMON in Atlanta (during the Rodney King riots, when they wouldn't let us out of our hotels!), so it's taken 14 and a half years. I spoke to a half a dozen customers yesterday who saw the ad, and didn't know that their iSeries was an AS/400! This included customers that we sold iSeries and i5 to who we had to communicate that this was their new AS/400. This is a good start, but we have a lot of catch up to do.

And I've never known him to exaggerate his feelings on this matter. If Malcolm is excited, Joe is excited, could Don or AL not be to far behind? FYI - I think that WSJ ad is also running in Fortune, Business Week, Forbes and misc. IT publications. Finally, the best computer a business can buy has the marketing it deserves?

I wonder why it's happening now? Just a change in the GM? It may have to do with a change in GM - but not the latest one.
