I get a kick out of this.  Replace a few words and phrases, and you get
this:

Why would an enterprise decide to use Windows instead of an iSeries to
store their business logic?   The cost per employee using an iSeries
server must be a tiny fraction of what that employee costs the employer
per year.  Using an iSeries server will increase the productivity of the
employee because the data is more accessible, has more tools for the
programmer to develop with, is more secure, more reliable, easier to
backup and costs less to maintain.

(Note that you can still use Windows to develop your thick client
applications if you so desire, you just don't store your database and
business logic there.)
