Since we live in the world of writing memos to non-tech or non "i" techs,
I've tried to include new and old (if needed) when referring to the system:
iSeries (AS400)
System i (AS400)
Power i (AS400)
To the Win crowd I would tell them that calling it an AS400 is like calling their latest win whatever server an "NT"... (they get it then).
