Not to mention renaming the RDi product several times over the past few years.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Navigating IBM's website

I've seen some recent frustration trying to navigate IBM's website. It's
been years since I've attempted to go to IBM.COM and tried to find anything.
What I do now is Google searches using qualifiers. This is a dated article
but still relevant.

e-power-of-google-part-1/

An example search for finding the latest RDi installation would be - rdi
download site:ibm.com
Finding the DB2 for I Reference would be - sql 7.2 site:ibm.com type:pdf

IBM has made this much harder by renaming the AS/400 to i, but adding the
version number helps narrow the results.

Hope this helps,
jon
