RE: What IS an "AS/400" ??????

[John P Carr <jpcarr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

        Ya, but if you remember me soliciting info from anyone who had
worked there and saw AS/400's and  would you give me an email??

        Well I got a response from a guy in Atlanta who works for a service
company that does work for Microsoft.    The Service company OWN's the
AS/400 but the data and programs are Microsoft's .

        Do they "Own" and "Run"   AS/400's   ??   
        No.

        Does their reports and stat's come from AS/400's 
        Yes.


        As a president once said;   "Define  - Run On - "

        Heard it from our Rep in July.  It's the first time I've heard it as
a
        definite.  That doesn't mean they didn't go back after learning NT
won't run
        the company, though.  ;)
