Re: IBM Extended Hardware Support Question for iSeries

Kind of like the death penalty. Kill off one and keep the others in line.

I paid regularly. Should my payments go to subsidize those who didn't?

In my state you cannot skip a year or so of vehicle registration without
catching up. Hey, nothing to tow that boat and too busy at this point in
your life? Want to skip a year or so registering it and it's trailer?
Well, when you go to use it you have to catch it all up.

Discounting eventually hits a law of diminishing returns. Personally I
find professional football tickets overpriced and I just won't pay it. Now
the Lions could lower their prices to attract me. Or, since they are
getting a good turnout, they could lose the margins they make on everyone
else.
