Re: Calling names - was: Marketing the platform

Joe,

Article in 2006 - talking about the SERVER.
Mail in 2008 - talking about the HARDWARE PLATFORM.

Different things. Cannot both be used in an argument about PLATFORM. Not a
lie, but a HUGE misdirection.

Your previous email was a lie - you want to deal with that, yet? Or avoid it
by another misdirection.

I was going to ask you to stop arguing like Joe, but that would not work,
would it?!

It appears that there WAS a recent change to the name of the servers.
Checking the announcements in April and in July, the 5 is missing from i5.
The new servers are now System i servers. I will check further to determine
how that fits the brand, etc..

Where does it say to use i5?
a) If it does not, you lie.
b) If it does, then you did not lie in this case.
It does not.

Trevor in 2006:

- AS/400 introduced in 1988
- eServer iSeries in 2000
- IBM System i5 in 2006

Trevor in 2008:

Server:
1988 AS/400
2000 iSeries
2006 System i


This is so you. You drop the "5", because it doesn't fit your current
argument, but there it is, on your own damned blog. You can't even stay
consistent with yourself.

Go ahead, call me a liar. I actually begin to enjoy this, in a weird
Squidbillies sort of way.
