The following is a collection of iSeries stories relating to the IBM iSeries
"It got up to 75 C (167 F) in [the computer room] and the tiles had warped into the floor. All the Intel boxes died, and we lost all the switches, but both the iSeries were happily chugging away. Even the UPSes had to be replaced. We are now xploring more capabilities of the [iSeries] box, including using it for storage. We have six integrated boxes. The SAN uses the hardware of the iSeries, and the disk access is quick and can do the Wintel backups on one tape. ... The biggest problem with Wintel [boxes] is they are nowhere near as reliable. We have about 100 Wintel servers and would like to reduce that to 20 by June 2007."-- Rick Masjuk, Inenco's IT manager, as quoted by ComputerWorld Australia
