RE: Why MI? (Was: MI programmers list? Interested?)

I'd have to see the pricing first....

I'm at the point where my existing computer equipment is getting 'old;'
it's not the fastest, shiniest, etc.  I'm toying with the idea that my best
move would be to get an AS/400 instead of a PC.

At a minimum I'd like OS, CLP, RPG, JAVA, Query/400...  in short, the same
kinds of things we have at work.

And I'd have to pay both the hardware and software fees myself.

I'd have to see the pricing first.
