Funny you should mention an IBM announcement Wiley - New AS/400s coming Previewed by IBM's resellers on Feb 1 , IBM's new AS/400 Northstar (PowerPC) CPU and OS/400 are due to be unveiled 2/9/99: " This year's AS/400 announcements focus on extending OS/400 with universal database support, giving it mainframe-class logical partitioning and a foundation on which to build fault tolerant clusters. Perhaps equally important to AS/400 customers, IBM is putting the Northstar processors into a consolidated and simplified product line that does away with the cumbersome and confusing distinctions between AS/400 systems, servers, and mixed-mode servers. " midrangecomputing.com Should see some AS/400 price reductions on existing models which will be heraled as "agressive marketing" . Now about that boat that IBM owes me..... Jim K.
