I'm not sure what VARPG has to do with this discussion.  Whereas
Microsoft has a clear goal to replace every iSeries with a Wintel box, I
highly doubt that IBM was intending to replace all AS/400s programs with
Windows boxes running VARPG.  It was simply an option for creating thick
client interfaces that used a language most AS/400 programmers were
already familiar with.
