Rob, Of course I have to jump in, "better" is a relative word. If new releases were so wonderful people would upgrade like crazy. I believe the operative word for an OS/400 release might be "different" not quantifiably "better". Most of the original testing of ILE concluded that performance was approximately the same, so the big question is why upgrade? why use it? Programming is getting more complicated not less and that alone discourages usage of the new features. If you only have one production machine with no inhouse resource to apply the release why take the risk? I do believe if you do use the Java stuff or have new peripherals it does make sense to upgrade since it is either mandatory or necessary from a performance / compatibility point of view. But then if you do use Java you might also be considering other platforms where Java is nore native or evolved as well. :)) Konrad
