You should be able to get auto-correction to work to your advantage
instead of against you. For example, set it to change occurrences of
"sysi" to "System i". Then just type "sysi" whenever you need it. You
still have the problem that the spill chucker doesn't like lower case
"i" of course. You can always add lower case "i" to your dictionary
but then you run the risk of referring to yourself as "i".
