Re: Ready to scrap an AS/400

The reality is that the Lotus people have an attitude adjustment to go 
through.  They've not figured out yet who bought whom, nor have they 
figured out that replicating the Internet to the desktop is not a 
practical solution.

Yes, and if they poured half the talent into it that they have poured into
DB2, it would fly. But the reality seems to be that they bought Lotus to
have some software that they were missing, but really don't have any real
drive to make it any better.
