Why on earth would you order a 710 and not a 720 when you are getting an IBM I machine? You should really get the 720, which is meant for IBM i. The 710 is meant for a Unix workload.
What disk, backplane, & disk controller did you order?
All new orders after approximately July 1, have shipping charges. Expect around 400 dollars shipping for a system

Subject: Too anxious to wait for IBM
All,
Ever get so excited for something to happen, then have to wait on IBM Corp. to respond??
I am waiting to pull the trigger on the IBM website with an online order of a
Power7 710 Express Server 8231-E1C1, with 5770-SSA-1-1014. The problem is that I cannot seem to get any timely answers to these following questions posed to SEVERAL IBM locales:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings,
I am about (anxiously) to order online the 8231-E1c1 710 express server with the i5 5770-SSA-1014 O/S. My question is this: Can you please give me a "list"
of all the software that is INCLUDED with that software subscription?? (I want to make sure I will get a FULL VERSION of the O/S).
Is there also free shipping - with 48 hour delivery? I have registered with IBM Partneworld as Exact-I.T.-Systems - would that provide any further discount and/or promo code ??
Thanks,
Don C.
