Re: Waste Management Sues SAP Over Software Failure

[CRPence <CRPbottle@xxxxxxxxx>]

  I installed V3R1M0 of OS/400 on a WMX system in Chicago long ago, so 
at least they had an AS/400 back then.

  So since the article says nothing about which "computer system", does 
the quoted text intend to imply that SAP was [apparently not properly, 
at least not as expected functionally,] running on IBM i operating 
system 6.1 installed on a Power Systems server?
