Tom, Jim:

You bring up a very good point. What is the cost benefit of tools for an
independent looking to do either  remote or off-site development.

IMHO, if I could get OS/400 (and all the goodies) at -twice- the cost of
a Celeron 400 PC running NT I'd jump at the chance.

This would be for a single user/developer license, make me a happy
camper.

Maybe the cost beneficial solution is to purchase CODE/400 and rent
development time on the net.

Has anyone done the numbers on this?
