Say,
If you really wish to scrap the 400, let me know, I might be
interested!

Subject: Ready to scrap an AS/400
Right now, my perception IS reality! I'm about ready to
scrap this piece
of junk AS/400 for something
else. It just plain can't do the job! We
have a 170 (V4R4M0)that is running Domino(5.0.4) and a voice response
system
(VRS) as
the main
applications along with the backend applications. So there isn't
much to the system and it still can't handle it. Domino
locks up and causes
problems for the VRS as the http
server consumes more of the cpu %. This
means
members who are calling in to the VRS are
either getting kicked out of the
system halfway
through their process, or they can't even get in. It also
means
that anyone who is trying to
pay for memberships get locked out. I can only
imagine what these people think, but I'm almost sure it's not
good. Since
many
of the
membership include people who would be influential in the decisions
to
their own companies systems, I
would ask, How is this for an advertisement
for
the AS/400? or How long can my business afford to be down
with AS/400?
Ticked off with the AS/400.

I used to have a boss - different sort of fellow - anyways he
used to quote
John Lennon.
"Perception is 99% of reality."
Nina,
You've hit the nail on the head here. It is not that the 400
*can't* do
these things. The problem is the
*Perception* is that it can't do these
things.
