Unfortunately, Barbara is correct in stating that MSUs are meaningless, because SU conversion is also meaningless. SUs are derived from the pseudo-science of LSPR, which in turn is the shaky foundation of zPCR. This 'knowledge' is then packaged up with some marketing sleight of hand to produce the bad metric of MSUs. We then base (hardware & software) decisions on these WAGs to further our business. - Ted MacNEIL eamacn...@yahoo.ca Twitter: @TedMacNEIL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
