TITLE OF ANNOUNCEMENT

IBM AS/400 9406 MODELS F35, F45, F50, F60, F70, F80, F90 AND F95

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ANNOUNCEMENT, CHARGES, AND AVAILABILITY

       The AS/400 (R) 9406 F models functionally replace the existing
9406 E models, with up to 60% improvement in relative system
performance when compared to the previous 9406 E models.  Performance
improvement results from increased processor performance, additional
main storage capacity and/or DASD capacity.  Depending on the
customer's application, configuration and number of users, the
performance improvement should result in better response time and/or
increased throughput.
