I know, they're not called AS/400s any more. We're on a POWER 8 box, an 8286-41A. But until IBM comes up with a new name that's an improvement over AS/400, we're sticking with that name. Apple was already using the letter i, and giving the platform a single letter name makes searching for online information about the platform a challenge.
I think the ""proper (yes, with (air)quotes) name is "IBM i". So it's not a single letter. But it is a collision ala "A. Pope" from National Treasure. (Yes, that scene blew my mind. Hence it's the canonical example that I use.)
