IBM Cuts iSeries Prices Ahead of Power5 Launch
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
Product transitions are always a pain in the neck for any IT vendor. As soon as they know a kicker product is imminent, all customers, except those desperate to buy a new piece of hardware or software, sit tight, because they want to see what the new product will be, and how it will be priced. This makes perfect sense to IBM midrange shops that may have one, two, or even three decades of experience in acquiring computers. READ MORE >

AS/400 7XX Shops Get Rebates on iSeries 8XX Boxes
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
IBM stopped offering upgrades from AS/400 Model 720, 730, and 740 servers to the iSeries 8XX machines in October 2003, in the hope that doing so would convince customers to upgrade before the end of the third quarter of 2003. The lack of upgrades probably did help IBM sell iSeries boxes in that quarter, but the lack of upgrades from 7XX to 8XX models has hurt sales since then. READ MORE >

COMMON Should Spell F-U-N
by Brian Kelly
Once upon a time, COMMON was a volunteer organization, and it was more like other user groups that sprung up in other parts of the computer industry. The conferences were a couple hundred bucks every six months. And IBM supplied most of the speakers. I was working for IBM when I made my first COMMON appearance, in the fall of 1979. It was in New Orleans. READ MORE >

As I See It: Infected
by Victor Rozek
When you turn on your PC, if you happen to have Symantec's Norton AntiVirus scanning for unwelcome code segments, it will inform you that it can recognize 66,171 unique viruses. That's as of March of this year, and the number gets bigger with each release. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that there are tens of thousands of pathetic, vindictive, cowardly, morally bankrupt, ethically vacuous, emotionally stunted individuals who chose to act out at the expense of others. But I am. READ MORE >
