Re: The Perpetual Myth of iSeries Obsolescence

Trevor,

Don't forget the other ancestors that some of us have worked on way back 
when:

System 38
System 36
System 34
System 32
System 3

Even though there is practically no resemblance, to today's machines, it 
all started in 1969 with the System/3.

Thank you,
