Then you're going to have to keep your eyes squeezed shut REAL tight,
because new AS/400 installations are happening all the time.  We just had a
post about a big Unix shop going AS/400.  In fact, now that the consultant
herds are being thinned and IT management layers are being peeled away, you
might just find that some shops are more interested in a top-to-bottom, cost
effective solution as opposed to the "fiefdom-building" mentality that PC
server farms exemplified.

These are interesting numbers.  How did you come by them?  What
applications?  How did you get the 90% figure?  For that matter, how did you
get the 25% figure?
