I just received my IBM eserver catalog. On the front cover, there is a
section for the "IBM iSeries loaded for the Web". Well, the picture of the
iSeries is not a current iSeries model - it's actually the picture of the
zSeries 800/pSeries 690. I understand that when the high-end Regatta
arrives
that it should be in the same shell as the p/zSeries high-end models. I
believe iSeries 890 has been tossed around.

So, is the picture just a slip-up on IBM's part or is it the preview for
the
iSeries to be available this summer since this is the Spring/Summer
catalog.

One other thing, this is definitely the iSeries edition, but the title has
changed from "IBM eserver: The iSeries Edition" to "IBM eserver:
Integrated
Application Data and Transaction Server Products and Services".

Interesting. Is anyone up for a "ZIP"Series server?  (That's not my
line...)
LOL
