Thanks Rob. To answer your question, yes I would. Albert ----- Original Message ----- From: rob@xxxxxxxxx To: "Midrange Systems Technical Discussion" Subject: RE: RPGEL, C/L, and DDS on non AS/400 platforms Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2005 17:15:24 -0500 RPG was declared a SAA or Systems Application Architecture language by IBM and should be available on all IBM platforms. (However I believe that IBM abandoned SAA.) Shortly after declaring RPG a SAA language they came out with a version of RPG for the mainframe. I believe the entry level cost for just the compiler was $199,000. Now the true SAA level of RPG was missing many items, like screen files, etc. Basically enforcing that the R stood for REPORT. I do not know if IBM ever did say anything about CL regarding SAA. I don't think so. I do not know enough about the mainframes to decide if there would be any unique enough situation that would warrant moving from an i5 to a zSeries. Now, before you all snicker, wouldn't you like the PC people to have at least that open of a mind towards the i5 that I am expressing towards the zSeries?
