Re: Memory costs

Rob,

Even if there is a performance impact, IBM should let the customer order
THEIR machine configured how THEY want it. If the configuration might result
in a significant performance impact, make the customer aware of it
but ultimately the decision should belong to the customer. IBM doesn't have
a crystal ball, they do not know if a customer has intentions of doubling
the memory in a year. IMHO, either this situation is just poor customer
service or yet another example of IBM attempting to milk its System i
customer base.

Kind regards,

BJ

P.S. If you can't tell, I'm a bit peeved with IBM right now after learning
of WDSC SE V7 omitting EGL, and the replacement for CODE Designer.

There isn't some weird thing like it helps performance to spread memory
out across a number of chips?  Or dissipates heat better, or anything
else?
