Hi all, I'm new to the AS/400 and I'm finding myself completely lost most of the time. Usually, I can find my job (WRKSBMJOB) and such, but as far as _understanding_ these machines.... I'm completely clueless. For example, I've had friends ask me why someone would use an AS/400 over a PC. I can generally get away with muttering something about multiple users and batch jobs. But, really, I'm just echoing bits and pieces I hear and have no true idea of what I'm talking about. It's driving me nuts!! I hate feeling this lost! I know how to use our software, but I feel like I'm on a PC and the only thing I know how to do is use Word. I know there's so more out there. I just can't figure out how to do it. So, I thought I could get a book that would explain all this to me. I've searched Amazon and found a couple that look interesting but I'd love to hear what ya'll recommend. Using the AS/400: An introduction by Patrice Gapen and Catherine Stoughton Mastering the AS/400: A Practical Hands on Guide, 3rd Edition by Jerry Fottral AS/400 Primer: Fundamental Concepts and Training for Programmers, Administrators, and System Operators by Ernie Malaga, Doug Pence, Ron Hawkins, and Ernie Malagan Starter Kit for the IBM iSeries and AS/400 by Gary Guthrie and Wayne Madden Introduction to the AS/400, 3rd Edition by Robert W. Janson Any thoughts? Thanks, Willow
