RE: Rack-mount AS/400s

["Wilt, Charles" <CWilt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

James,

No one seems to have mentioned it, but both the new i5 models are rack
mountable.  In fact, the only way the 570 come are rack mountable.

i5 520 - rack or deskside
i5 570 - rack only

In addition, the some of the older iSeries models are considered
"rackable" meaning IBM makes a drawer which can hold them that can be
installed in a standard 19" rack.
