LEAD STORIES: SPECIAL REPORT -- IBM LAYOFFS

IBM LAYOFFS COULD HIT CLOSE TO HOME | News: iSeries Network

IBM CEO Sam Palmisano didn't confirm rumors of layoffs, but he 
didn't actually deny them either. Still, insiders say there will be 
layoffs, and when jobs start being cut, it's going to hit the 
iSeries where it lives. (Free registration to this site required.)

IBM CHIEF SUGGEST JOB CUTS | News: Associated Press

There are conflicting reports about whether CEO Sam Palmisano
confirmed or didn't confirm job cuts, but it's probably safe to say
that IBM is about to layoff a significant number of employees -- even
if reporters and analysts couldn't get a straight answer from him.

WORKING WITH QSECOFR AUTHORITY  | Advice: Search400

One user writes, "I know that QSEOCFR has access to all objects. 
When a new object is created, an authority entry gets added to the 
object for QSECOFR *all. Why is this? If I remove this, QSEOCFR 
still has access to this object (from its user profile), so why 
does OS/400 add QSECOFR into the authority of this object? Does 
adding this into the object take up system storage?" Some 
suggestions were made. Do you have any others?

THE MISSING LINK | Uh, dude, the Dell guy is accessorizing

Dude, if you find Dell's whole "Steven" shtick unbearable, at least 
you won't find it unwearable. Dell thinks its "Dude, you're gettin' 
a Dell" ad campaign and pimply pitchman are so hip that the company 
is cranking out campus-cool "Dude Gear" -- T-shirts, baseball hats, 
backpacks and CD cases. Now you can get "duded up" without buying a 
Dimension. The company says the dude duds are just a natural 
extension of the commercials, so basically you can have what Steven 
has. Fortunately, other stuff the character may have (like a fake 
ID, beer-battered futon and 3-month-old pizza boxes) aren't 
part of the package.
