Re: Left AS/400 and Returned

Just my theory, but I feel strongly feel that the move away from the
iSeries has been prompted in large part by the 30-something MBA's who are
now sitting in the decision making seats. They've been drinking the M$
kool-aid their entire careers, and don't really care about the benefits of
the iSeries. This is the case at the client I mentioned. IBM offered at
COMMON to contact people at "sites at risk", so I took them up on the offer
and provided the name and number of one of the decision makers. I have not
heard back yet as to the results. I'll keep you posted.

Best bet is to brush up your res. Chances are some new flavour of the month
SQL body will be edging you out.
Moving back, as Paul did is a rarity
