Classification: Confidential Sigh!
The "new tools" are neither as functional, reliable or available as those they replace! -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of zMan Sent: Sunday, November 28, 2021 9:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: IBM RFE's Broken [CAUTION: This Email is from outside the Organization. Unless you trust the sender, Don't click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] Their web stuff is run by a bunch of kids in some other country. They don't understand what they have, and don't much care. There are horror stories about things like the CE parts ordering site being down for a week at a time, because the person who understood it left and they had to figure out how it worked. Not your father's IBM by a long shot. Very sad. On Sat, Nov 27, 2021 at 10:59 PM Lionel B.
