a Techtarget story about Darrell Martin, manager of computer operations,
Morey Corp, "Martin has a different reason – for some time, he's tried to
train everyone in his company to stop calling the platform AS/400, OS/400,
and iSeries and to start calling it System i and i5/OS. With the new change,
he's giving up.

"I was the only evangelist in our whole unit," he said. "We've got four
dedicated programmers on the iSeries or the IBM i or whatever it's called
today. I was the one saying, 'We need to get used to the new terminology.'
When the announcement came out, I threw my hands up and said it's not worth
it." So now the terminology is shifting in reverse. "I'm calling it the
AS/400 again," he said. "Because that's what our users have been doing. It's
just not worth it. It's an AS/400."
