Re: IBM Laughing Boardroom

Yes, Laughing Boardroom is funny and nostalgic. But also relevant still.
One of our customers is hosting 30,000 + sessions throughout the day with
remarkable reliability, day after day after day. This platform is a gem.

Another venerable presenter on AS/400 was Malcolm Haines - I've heard he
did something like have AS/400 plastered on London buses - someone
please correct me on this, if needed.

In YouTube, I saw a link on IBM AS/400 The Best Architecture In The
World 1992 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pY6Xxptp9A - it's not as
humorous as the boardroom bits, but interesting.

Cheers

Videos about the IBM "eseries / iseries" back in the day.
For those of us who have been on the box for awhile, you'll probably

get a real kick out of these.

"One day, all computers will be like this." — Well, accurate predictions

are hard, especially when they're about the future. ;-)

My favorite is this one, though:

Tons of steel in the studio, and of course, 8" floppy drives!
