Re: iSeries Nav?

Honestly, iNav isn't exactly a stellar performer either.  Nor is WDSC 
for that matter.  (Granted, it's better than the web crap they put out, 
but it's still not great.)

Why is it whenever IBM writes software that's not green-screen, it 
always performs poorly??

Sorry for sounding negative, but this has bothered me for AGES now...
