Congrats! We're still on our 810 with V5R4. I have 6.1 in the box but
ancient Synon Y1SY lib has to go! We missed our hardware upgrade window in
2008/2009 when management said "for sure" we were transitioning to SAP (on
*NIX/Oracle), then it fell through and the window closed. Now we're in limbo
while management decides when we'll go to SAP. It's a certainty, but don't
know when.

We're running a bunch of financial stuff on SAP on AIX on IBM p, but
will be transitioning our main billing and distribution processing
from IBM i to SAP (presumably also on AIX on IBM p) in a few years. :(

But we're still going to have our warehouse software on IBM i, so
we're on 6.1 and are still getting hardware upgrades. (1.3TB of DASD
added to our main production system last weekend.)
