RE: USDA Agency Looks to Consolidate 2,384 AS/400s

Does anyone actually know of a large development that actually came in on time 
and within budget? We read so many times that this or that project has been 
abandoned after over running the projected plan by 5 years and $20 squillion 
overspend. (Look at the Wembly stadium rebuild tho granted not a computer 
project) There must be one somewhere, mustn't there?

Now they, like hundreds of others before them, will spend millions of 
dollars (and that's just the budget over-runs!) lining the pockets of 
consultants and many many years trying to convert to a 
Windows/Oracle/Whatever "solution" instead of having started evolving what 
they have fifteen years ago.

Glad it's the U.S. Taxpayers money and not mine that will be wasted <grin>
