The name was changed to "IBM i" (or more fully IBM i on Power) in _2008_ Booth.

In other words it has been called IBM i for a lot longer than it was ever called iSeries - which was only about 5 years if I recall.

oh gosh.... Has IBM changed the name again??? IBM'll futz around with the name to counter the "old" issue and leave "copyright 1980" on the sign-on screen. very very IBM.

IBM seems to enjoy shooting themselve's in the feet a few times a decade, just for old times, I guess?

Not to disagree with you in some respects Booth - but you realize that "current iSeries machines" is a contradiction in terms right? <grin>
