Why is there the assumption that the green screen isn't mouseable? Mouse capabilities may not be as good as, say DOS or Unix, but it has most of the functions.

I wonder if the people complaining have ever tried a green screen scroll bar to scroll a subfile from top to bottom?

Sometimes I wonder why people think the System i is "outdated". Then, I read Midrange-L and I know why...

Modernize your skills, then maybe we can use the System i in a modern way. Then watch the pretenders come running....

I key with two hands, I should never have to touch the mouse, but to send
this e-mail now I have to hit alt, down, down look and see that outlook has
highlighted the send menu option and hit enter, or use the mouse to press
the button.
