Fine Steve, you keep deluding yourself with all of your anti-IBM crap.

the flip side of which is to pledge allegiance to an IBM that is
ruining this system of ours by not investing in the operating system,
languages and run time.


The rest of us in the real world will just keep our business running and
competitive with our "old, outdated" iSeries.

The HP ad is not inaccurate. RPG/5250 apps have to be rewritten to be
integrated into the mainstream of current day computing. Technically
however, you could add modern features to RPG. The 5250 data stream
and DDS could be enhanced with the ability to embed and render HTML.
All it takes is an investment in IBM i software technologies that HP
is telling you IBM is not willing to do.
