I have no idea what the problem is. What you experienced is what I'm used
to.

This is getting really frustrating. IBM's new web architecture not only
sucks pond water, but gives the impression they have no clue what they are
doing. Now I can't download Redbooks. I've tried three different browsers
(some updated one not), two different versions of MS OS with different
browsers so I am left to the conclusion that the web site is busted. After
they do a wonderful job of requiring me to provide them work email, phone,
etc. then the site simply refuses to download the book.



Look, I don't mind giving IBM my work information; they've had it for over
30 years but then refusing to download the book for whatever reason, that's
getting petty.
