Aaron, I look at it this way. The people who run straight RPG36 or straight RPG38 have an old machine plastered into a closet somewhere, like the "Legends of iSeries" story. They couldn't care less about a new machine not supporting these ancient languages because they don't upgrade. And frankly, why should IBM care about losing business to companies that haven't purchased a thing in 15 years? The other side of the fence is the people that are running mainly RPG or even RPGLE based code, and have some RPG36 or RPG38 code. These people may be a growing business and purchase new equipment on occasion. These people will be affected. I suspect that many of these people would be grateful at the chance to have a "business" reason to convert these last few applications to something more current. And not only the IT people...
