Now, I'm not advocating that IBM should redesign our preferred system to

REQUIRE more services.

IBM is doing that inherently by requiring us to go to the web to get GUI.
If I had to make a guess I would say that the services rendered on the
System i5 will be growing A LOT in the next 5 years. Mostly because of
Websphere reasons, and then eventually it will migrate off of the System i5.
