Tommy,
Whether you agree with their opinion, this article is a little different. It
is IT Jungle giving Neil a place to offer his opinion. And if you read it
closely, you will see he has some valid points that should be addressed by
IBM.
Sure, not everyone will agree with his opinion, and others will be surprised
by some of his facts. Either way, his question is about the future of the
IBM i operating system in this new Power Systems equation. IBM made some
interesting promises at COMMON, and some of them have not come to fruition.
The simplest example was that the 'i for business' logo was to be seen with
the AIX and Linux logos everywhere the Power Systems was to be marketed. I
would expect IBM's website to be a marketing tool, yet their site
(
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power) has none of the three logos.
Add Neil's perspective, and it would be nice to have some more IBM i
visibility out in the mainstream world.

FWIW i never hang my hat on anything said at IT Jungle. too many times
have i looked at their viewpoint/stance and found it to be total hogwash.
IMO no one should give them any credence whatsoever. should they start
writing *good* credible articles i'll start listening...
Thanks,
