RE: Force fed LPAR

["Doug Hart" <doughart@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 I see more Domino users going to LPAR and just have to ask.
 Wasn't IBM selling a special "Bumble Bee" iSeries tuned of Domino just a
few years ago.
 Wasn't I told that Domino would run better on these systems than on my
standard iSeries.
 So if I cut up my 820 a put Domino in a partition aren't I loosing
something?
