Forgive me if this comes thru as HTML. I'm using iNotes Web Acess. I just
found the button to change from rich text to plain text. If this doesn't
work, I'll stop replying to midrange when I'm out of town.  :-))

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.

I just had a note from Malcolm on another issue and I would concur that he
is excited. 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?

>> This is good stuff. 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. I suspect
this is a project that started with the former GM (good old whatsisname)
