The surprising secret of a Las Vegas data center: No Glitz
http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9178445/The_surprising_secret_of_a_Las_Vegas_data_center_No_glitz

And on page two:
"Like many other casinos, Sands uses IBM System i servers because many
core systems used in the gaming industry are written in IBM's RPG
programming language. System i runs financials, inventory and
purchasing, among other systems. "

Interesting enough, I got found the story via a link in an MS SQL
Server newsletter :)
