New York

I am off to New York on Sunday to babysit some customers at IBM Poughkeepsie. Should be fun, a lot of it is around IBM's Linux strategy on the entire eServer range (apart from iSeries, it is dying anyway!). Will have a spare day around Manhatten, so I will take load of pictures, and hopefully it will be a little bit warmer than last time. Will probably meet up with Debra from Wiley to discuss the book while we are out there, and seeing as Roger and I signed the contracts last week, we are rolling.

why the "iseries is dying" chanting? it has apparently been dying for 10 years, but is doing great...

I am talking in respect to Linux on the eServer range. There is not a lot you would want to do with Linux on an iSeries, as opposed to the p/z/x series. OS/400 is still in wide use, and I imagine it will be for a very long time. Linux does not fit into the mould of the traditional iSeries user, it does on the other machines in the range though.
