Re: Education options

[Don <dr2@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Interestingly enough, El C's still going strong.

Further interestingly enough, they've updated to RISC, but only AFTER and
BECAUSE a member of this list gave their AS/400 coordinator a major state
of the art info briefing.  Thier local "business partner" wanted to pawn
off CISC technology on them back in the 4.1 timeframe which would have in
effect caused them to either have to do more than one purchase or more
than one upgrade....they were told to buy a v3rx box AFTER RISC was well
out and in the industry...

Now, if they'ld only start teaching iSeries out at the Richlands
Campus....THAT would be an epiphany....:)
