Re: New lower cost IBM i announced

[Jack Tucky <jacktucky@xxxxxxxxx>]

In our case we sold an "ERP" package.  The customer would come to us.  We
would sell our software and the hardware.  if we involved IBM they would
underbid the hardware from another BP, and that BP would get a lead into
the customer to sell their solution.  IBM NEVER called us and said we want
to sell your software to a customer.

We sold the hardware with our software, that was a requirement back in the
day.  Some BP's would sell you some junk software as their Value add on to
just get the hardware.
