FWIW, for a construction company, nothing beats a green screen for banging
in time cards and invoices.

FWIW.... I agree with your users. When I see green screen, I go
"ewwwwww", too.
However, I don't like that you are associating GreenScreen=IBMi, and
GUI=Windows.
You can (and should!) write GUI apps on IBM i. I've been telling people
to do that for 10+ years. Your users shouldn't know or care where the
data resides... what they should know/care about is that it's stable,
and always there when they need it. And IBM i excels at that.
Take iPhone, iPad, Android phones, Blackberries... all easy to use GUI
interfaces, none of them are Windows in any way shape or form. How
about XBox, Wii, PS3... all easy to use GUI devices, no Windows involved.
IBM i can be a major player in that world too, using GUI technologies
like web. The only reason you still code green screens is because you
(or someone else in your environment) has made that choice.
Note that we actively discourage green-screen sessions at COMMON. (Much
more so than Richard's .NET sessions!)
