Re: OS/400 topics

Hi:

The fine points, as I understand them, are these:

Regardless of the marketing department name of the month, hardware is 
called what IBM called it when they built it. We are running an

        AS/400e Series

with a blue "e." It is not an "i Series," and it is not a "Series i," nor 
will it ever be either.

The operating system is called what IBM called it when they released the 
version in question. We are running:

        OS/400 Version 5 Release 2

If we upgrade one level (the highest we can go on our Model 720) we will 
be running:

        i5/OS Version 5 Release 3

And if you are sure I am confused, I will readily agree even if I'm not 
sure I'm wrong....

Apple used to run their business on the iSeries and they still may.

Not to draw too fine a point, but ... they ran on an AS/400, not an 
iSeries.

I work with one if their former programmers (AS/400 programmers, that is).
