Last weekend Hurricane Irene struck our area with brute force. Trees down, power is out, and a lot of cleanup is ahead of us, but thankfully our office in Mansfield, MA was spared.

Did you know that there is no support for certain communications cards in an IBM i blade server environment, such as a fax card?

There is no need for a fax card on the IBM i itself.
