I had to read that paragraph of the interview twice, myself, since it
sounded exactly as you suggest.  However, after reading it again, I
believe he's saying just the opposite: that Java *is* the future
programming language of the AS/400. 

Here's the relevant excerpt, verbatim. 

    Jarosh: "A couple of years ago I said that Java is the future
    programming environment for the AS/400 and customers gasped. Now
    that's no longer the case." 

The "that" is the *gasping*, methinks, and not the *Java.*  ;-)
