I work as a computer system operator on a IBM iSeries (AS/400) at Technicolor in Camarillo, Calif. We are THE data center for the entire Thomson Corp, which is actually based in France. For our 6000 users, we have 4 16Way IBM-Power5 processors partitioned into 4 separate systems sharing 4.2 TB of 35GB-15K RAID-5 SCSI disks and 2GB of memory, gonna get 2GB more "main storage" and 4 more 16Way CPUs! Been doing the same gig for assorted compaines since 1988, including Citizen Watch Co., Gemological Inst. of America, Delta Dental, etc. The great thing about being an IBM AS/400 sysop, is that many large companies have at least one AS/400, or "iSeries eServer" as they are called now.
