RE: Saving the System i: Fight Rather Than Switch

From: Trevor Perry

I think you are missing the point of my site/s...


Nah.  And as I said, I respect the effort, and I've even contributed in my
own tiny way.  I just have reservations about the efficacy; has our industry
really fallen to the point where style is more important than substance?
Certainly that's the case in commodity items such as desktops and MP3
players and cellphones, but is it really the case in business servers?  Can
you afford to buy a $20,000 server the same way you buy a $200 camera?  I
wonder if we shouldn't be spending more time differentiating the market
rather than falling into the marketing and merchandising trap.

But that's just me.
