Neil,

The itjungle article titled "IBM Changes Name Back to AS/400, Promises Return to Glory, TV Ads" was just an April Fools joke. It appears that you took the article way too seriously! The article's author (Cervantes) should have given you a clue that it was only a spoof.

Cervantes was actually the author of "Don Quixote". Don Quixote's mind became so myopically focused on fictional tales of knightly intrigue that he began interpreting every event of ordinary life in the context of his fictional readings, and provided a premise for dozens of hillarious stories of how Don Quixote drew erroneous conclusions about the people and events he faced.

It appears that your view of IBM i has become so myopically focused, that you're drawing the erroneous conclusion that it's fate is the same as OS/2.

The cure may not be simple, but it may help if you were to install Zend core, or one of the other new technologies that run under IBM i, and see if it broadens your view. You somehow need to get past CPF.

Nathan.
