...and most annoyingly, my email client always changes "IBM i" to "IBM I".

My resume says I have experience with IBM I 7.1 on IBM Power Systems, along
with AS/400, iSeries and System i.

What is ironic (as others have mentioned) is that if you look in many of the
technical documents on IBM's own site, they still refer to the system as
either AS/400 or iSeries.

BTW,

On a 7.1 system, DSPDTAARA DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QSS1MRI) and see what version is
listed there.

( Hint: It doesn't say IBM i 7.1 )

<<It sometimes feels like we went from a vibrant, strong, passionate
community of AS/400 professionals to a divided, marginalized, group of old
out of date programmers and a small passionate group of IBM i
professionals.>>

That's exactly what happened. We could talk for days about what caused that.
