I'm not sure if IBM corporation really cares about the platform the way they
used to, considering the Global Services arm makes a big pile of money
assisting customers to get up and running with non iSeries systems.

As long as the share price is good, Armonk is happy.

Subject: IBM BP's that used to be ISERIES now migrating to windows ?

Does anyone know how IBM is dealing with BP's that at one time designed apps
etc sold primarily for AS400/ISERIES but are now migrating away from the
platform only to migrate the customer base as well. Curious to know A) how
much of this is going on and B) is it a trend that is starting to gain
traction and C) and what IBM's stance on something like this might be. I
just read an article where a municipality had been on AS400 for close to 20
years and now they will be jumping ship to the windows flagship product that
they have only to be shown a bunch of bells and whistles that they want that
they could of had several years ago on system i.
