IBM Closed APAR Database GONE

[John Gebhardt]

Well it's finally done, at last IBM can gouge us completly for defect
support with the elimination of the Closed APAR data base from the
AS/400 Support Web site. You used to be able to find your own solutions
to problems looking in the CLOSED APAR DATABASE, but it is now gone. It
looks like you can pay for the OPEN AND CLOSED APAR DATABASE.

With the last of the changes. IE.. V4R1 maintenance costs, IBM can gouge
us for everything.

Hey IBM, what about us V3xx users?

Anybody else fed up?

P.S. Tandem Computer's Support on the WEB is still FREE.......Just have
to own a system.
