RE: MAPICS Green Screen Support

My general feeling from this past users conference is that new functionality
added to the product will only be done in a client server (Power
Architecture) environment. Materials Management improves upon Inventory, for
example. This is my impression of the direction of the applications.
However, I believe that for a number of operations (especially head's down
keying), nothing beats the green screen for speed, so it will be a shame for
MAPICS to turn their back to the green screen entirely.
