If I were a business with some IT skill and not much cash, I'd use PHP, mySQL and a cheap web hosting account from some place like GoDaddy. That's why PHP has such a following. If I were writing fat client apps, I'd probably download Sun's Java IDE and use that. Now there is IBM's VARPG and ASNA's VRPG, but neither get much press and both cost $$. Programmers like to play when they learn (that's how I learned), but the iSeries and RPG are a pretty pricey playground. Mike E.
