Re: Performance of ODBC vs. other access methods

This just reminded me of an Oracle funny that happened a year or so ago. 

I was at a customer site working on a report delivery project and all of a 
sudden a voice came on over the intercom system:

"Could everyone please log out of Oracle.  We need to reboot the server."

Talk about funny :-)

When Steve gets his p5 in production it should be interesting to hear how 
many programmers and operators it will take to screw in a lightbulb.

Dang..we hate to see you go Steve....now that you'll have your beloved
p5 guess you don't really need to bug us anymore...

By the way how much does a p5 cost when you add security software &
setup, webserver (include manhours), DB tuning, spool file control,
infinitely better job control, easier operation & messaging features??

Just a guess but by the time you "a la carte" all of OS/400 features to
p5, there's not really that much of a difference in TCO & OS/400 will
still simply be miles ahead of the capabilities & features of the p5. 


Thanks,
