Hi Everyone,



In one of the many discussions that have been held on this forum regarding using the correct name for the system, I remember a few months ago someone had a really useful picture showing the progression from AS/400 to iSeries to System i to IBM i with the corresponding hardware (CISC, RISC, Power 4, Power 5, Power 6...).



I'm sorry, I don't remember who it was and I've had no luck in the archives, but if that person is still on the list would it be possible to post that again? It would come in very useful for a presentation I'm doing about the system to some non-technical people.



Many thanks in advance!
