RE: IBM's version of New Coke (was SOM/DSOM)

IMHO, yes and no...

If iCitizens embraced the eServer, and ***market the eServer brand***...
then I think there's a ***possibility*** the iSeries could essentially
become the eServer (but it just won't necessarily be called the iSeries
anymore).

The iSeries has the beginnings of being a better *nix than *nix, and a
better Windows than Windoze, already...  IMV.

'Course, what happens is half up to IBM, and half up to the market.
