RE: AS/400 At Home

[Steve Martin <smartin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would LOVE an AS/400 at home. I used to Consult and I've had Contracts,
now I'm a full-time employee... but for me to learn all the things I want to
learn (value add to my employer), and expand my AS/400 knowledge, I would
certainly consider a (reasonable cost) hardware purchase for my home.
