It costs less to run on AIX or Linux.

If IBM were to abandon support for RPG, would you abandon IBM i? Does RPG
mean that much to you?

It would not be at all my decision to make.

Long range the corporation is planning to move most of our
applications from various RPG-based packages running on IBM i on Power
to SAP running on AIX on Power.

So my guess is that if IBM were to announce the discontinuance of RPG,
that process would be accelerated.
