I don't know. It's kinda catchy. 'I' has such a personal ring to it. Kinda like Micro$oft and their 'ME'. Now I can run ME & I on the same machine -bret

I love it!!! Now my managers will be wondering why they just spent $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ on NT servers and Oracle to run e-business apps. And it happens with a simple name change.

Bret, Guess the time is right for MYSELF! (you know, "Me, myself & I!") Sorry, folks, I couldn't resist! Joe

Quick question. Now when I tell someone what platform I work on will I no longer get a period of time looking at a blank stare and then the statement "Is that some sort of mainframe?"?

You may respond: Kind of. . . . .It's a lot more powerful than your typical mainframe. E-I-E-I-O Dave

John, Just tell people you work on one of the IBM P.I.X.Z. (pixie???) processors. I'm sure you will get more than a couple of seconds of blank look. Jerry Hensley Peerless Chain
