Re: Death of RPG38 and RPG36 -and- more!

I am disappointed by this withdrawal of the withdrawal.  :-)

I do find it surprising that any S/36 environment people do upgrade.  I 
would have thought that they would have purchased their as/400 years ago 
and be running fat and stupid on it.  As far as IBM fearing that these 
people may go to Oracle or whatever, why should they care?  I mean, if 
they're not spending money with IBM as it is, then zero existing sales 
minus any loss of sales is still not a positive number, right?

However, someone said that they do occasionally upgrade, only just about 
once a decade.
