RE: Saving the System i: Fight Rather Than Switch

XP, 95, ME, and Vista are nothing more than version indicators.
"Windows" has been "Windows" since something like 1984 and is the thrust
of the Microsoft marketing program.  They emphasize new versions, yes,
but not at the expense of the existing Windows brand.

Ditto Office, Word, Excel, SQL Server, and so on.

Does anyone know of anyone using Windows XP but refers to it as Windows
95? 

The same with our system. 

AS/400 = Win95
iSeries = Win98/2000
i5 = XP/Vista

If we can adapt to what M$ calls its products, and since change is an
inherent part of our culture as IT pros, it shouldn't be difficult to
assimilate to i5.
