过去,购买一台AS/400往往意味着公司的财政紧张。获得一个低价位功能齐全的集成软件包并不象签一张10万到100万的支票那样简单。即使你不在乎多花些钱,机器硬件本身也会令你焦头烂额。对那些熟悉PC插卡和SIMM的操作人员来说,AS/400和IBM的技术人员是一个完全陌生的技术水平。全新的Model 150将改变这一点,它是一个从各方面来讲都更象是PC的低价AS/400型号,计划于1997年第一季度面市。它将使IT部门重新考虑将AS/400用作PC应用及业务解决方案。
In the past, buying an AS / 400 often meant financial strain on the company. Getting a low-cost integrated package is not as easy as signing a 100,000 to 1,000,000 check. Even if you do not care to spend more money, the machine hardware itself will make you battered. For those who are familiar with PC cards and SIMM, AS / 400 and IBM technicians are a completely new level of technology. The new Model 150 will change that, a more cost-effective AS / 400 model that looks more like a PC in every respect and is scheduled to be available in the first quarter of 1997. It will allow IT to reconsider using the AS / 400 as a PC application and business solution.
