Not sure how you are using this to show #5 was wrong. You cite a combined number so how can you claim IBM i isn't the largest component of it?

I will admit #5 was slightly misstated. Should be O/S software revenue.

Q1 2012 Software: 5.6 billion total software sales, $590 million from OS sales (AIX, Power Linux, IBM I all combined).
