State of the System i: What's Going On in the Market?
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
The System i market has had to absorb a lot of changes in 2007 so far and is coping with other changes that are on the horizon. IBM has announced user-based pricing on entry System i5 models, has introduced a Power6-based machine with a new pricing model, and i5/OS V6R1 and a more complete Power6 line--including a blade server, finally--are on the way.

Reader Feedback on EGL: At Least It's Not Java, But It Ain't RPG, Either
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
Well, as you might have expected, Brian Kelly has once again struck a chord with some of the RPG faithful.
