RE: Death of SNA?

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was one of the first customers in the world to have an HMC, and to be
polite, it didn't work well in the beginning.

I own a product that programs to the HMC, and it will be fully functional
when the 4/25 release of the HMC's closed proprietary software, which has
not yet shipped.

The product was shipped clearly 6 months to a year before it was ready, and
IBM's reaction was to emulate a river in Egypt. (Da Nile)

No, I'm not happy about it.

Al,

Yes - the question I was asking was why you would say
"You should take joy in the fact that you can't use
one!"  when refering to the i5 and HMC.
