Yes, temporarily due to 'World Wide Load Balancing'. Orders placed until Nov 4 I believe. IBM has promised not to affect customer delivery with these shipments but I'm from MO on this..... I have already installed one of these and can tell you that attempts to get MF PTFs for the thing required a duty manager.... I'll stop there....

I thought the i5 was being manufactured in Rochester...I guess I was wrong!

I received this message today from my client's iSeries system administrator, 
who received it from his IBM business partner.  (See below)

I finally got the schedule ship date from IBM. It is October 11th. Normally it takes four business days to deliver. However, this unit is coming out of Dublin, Ireland. IBM said they have had some issues with customs. Once it ships I can start tracking. As far as setting up your travel plans, I would give it until 10/21 or 10/22 as a projected arrival.
