They run our software (which was written on S/34, S/36, S/38, and now
OS/400 at various levels).  We also customize a lot of stuff for them.
They aren't buying new software from us in the sense that shrink wrapped
software is, but we are constantly doing new development for them.  Of
course we don't develop new stuff in RPG II 1/2 anymore.
