In the old days, IBM had trademark police who would have fixed that! As Dana noted, the platform formerly known as AS/400 (never AS400, as the Verizon report has it) has been rebranded repeatedly: AS/400 iSeries System i IBM i for POWER Systems (or just "IBM i") and soon probably just a symbol [I tried to send the Prince symbol here but the list rejected it] And here we thought "System/360" to "System/370" to "System/390" to "zSeries" to "System z" to "z Systems" was confusing! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
