We have a Lansa based application that is client/server based.

Visual Lansa on the PC's, Server code on the AS/400.

We have to deploy the DLL's to the Pc's for upgrades, changes, etc.

Lansa has a "Deployment Tool" that distributes new and changed DLL's to PC's 
when they connect, much like AOL downloads stuff when
you connect.

Right now it only runs on Nt/2000.

So, my customers who buy Iseries and want to run deployment tool buy the 
integrated PC Card.
