Re: IBM will announce two new System i models, 515 and 525 on Apr. 10.

As I understand it you pay per connected user for ALL users accessing the system on User Based machine (i.e. 515). So for the Internet that's what, a BILLION? So instead of paying for all those folks you add the Remote Access charge one time for everyone. So it works out to pennies per user.

Wonder what the 'remote access' refers to?





The big deal on these machines is that there is no more 5250 governor.
Also,
they are now user based priced for the OS. Watch for the big addon charge
for
"remote access". It adds $4k to the price.
