RE: IBM's Mainframe Makeover

Hi Martin,

        I suppose I should have followed my remarks with < ;) >.  I did read the
article and I agree it was  positive.  I was just reacting to what Leif
posted.  It doesn't seem right to blow over os/400 in such a list and it
just reminded me of the way the 400 (oops iSeries) is often portrayed -

iSeries: Formerly the AS/400. Mini-mainframes running *AIX and Linux*.  (Not
what i usually run on it)

        I think OS/400 is the biggest asset it has and it wasn't even mentioned 
in
the box - which may be the only thing many seeing the article read.  Granted
any press is better than none, I just can't believe the 'box' didn't even
mention The os.
