IBM Reverses Course, Keeps S/3X Compilers in i5/OS V5R5
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
The thing about sagas is that they have drama, they tend to go on for a long time, and even when it feels like the tensions that make up the drama are resolved, there is always a sense that it is a fleeting resolution, but a brief respite before the story begins again. So it is with the older compilers that are buried within the i5/OS platform. READ MORE >

Readers React to Project Prometheus System i Effort
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
