I think the issue is not that schools don't teach iSeries per se, but the very concepts that make i5/OS are not taught. Single level storage is never mentioned in IT classes, and in database classes it is taught that DBA's must spend a great deal of time doing things that are automatic on iSeries. It would be great if we could at least become a footnote. -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of rob@xxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 14, 2005 7:01 AM To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: Re: iSeries Radio Ad I'm not so sure about the school thing. I've yet to meet a business that had a Univac 1100/80 that I attempted to learn fortran on at Michigan Tech years ago. And I think a lot of businesses can differentiate between a computer used as a learning aid, and one used for running their business.

It won't last or have even intermediate term impact unless and until the schools start cranking out people that have a clue, understand and appreciate the value of OS/400. We've had almost a full generation of IT Mgmt come through the school systems being pumped full of unix and windows...that's all they know and that's all they wanna use.... Face it, you don't buy something you don't know about as readily as something you do know about... Safe trip to COMMON, Al, et al...hope you keep warm....drop by the LUG booth and pickup a pin....
