Alright.  Here's the deal.

It seems some of you WANT the AS/400 to fail.  If so, we don't need that
negative energy.  If you like PCs so much, why not join our NT bretheren and
start programming (or pointing/clicking... not even programming) Cold Fusion
and use the MS SQL DB.  :)

Why does SEU need enhancing?  It's pretty good as is.  IBM most likely
realized that which is why they made this "announcement".  There has been
rumors about RPG not being enhanced... well, that didn't pan out.  

On the other side of the coin, if the SEU users use it becuase they don't
like Winblows, then let's see someone write an editor for Linux (in Java of
course) that works.  Then we'd have the GUI users happy, and the SEU users
will keep on keepin on with SEU.

Anyhow, it's been said before, and I'll say it again.  Why do we need GUI?
Why do we need PCs?  The only reason I like mine is to run multiple
sessions... if I couldn't, I'd prefer a dumb terminal.  Stability for the
main reason.  I only had one catch fire on me once.. (it was soooo cool...
pop... sizzle... smoke... a yell from across the room "unplug it!!"...)

My 2cents depeding on your As/400 model and machine size.  (please call for
pricing)

Brad
