Mike:

I have a whole range of excuses. However, the core reasons were that the 
management here wanted to toss out the AS/400. They hated it. And one weekend, 
IBM 
came in and boxed up the machine. I was left with a bunch of Linux servers 
and "free" open systems to develop with. 

The nice part is that I lost 30 pounds in the process.
