RE: I'm about to give up on "System i"

Actually, Trevor brings up a good point.

We should be thinking in terms of applications and O/S vs hardware anyway...

John,

In Word, add an autocorrect - Replace 'System i' with 'System i'.

Or, after you type System<space>i<space> press <ctrl>Z - which will perform
an "undo" of the autocapitalizing.


Or, since hardware no longer matters (you know, i5/OS on intel rumor), stop
using 'System i' and start typing 'i5/OS' more often.

Trevor
