Guys, I'm just overwhelm by the way IBM is conduction business with the iSeries server (AS/400). As if it is not difficult enough for developers to get into one of these boxes (270) now they have to raise the bar for financing the system. I tried to get in with their current criteria and I was bumped due to lack of business credit history. I'm just tired trying to build a business and career with the AS/400. I'm moving on to Suns Solaris and Linux for more knowledge, development and to build my business. I will continue to work with my current knowledge on the iSeries until I'm fully developed on the other platforms I'm learning now.
