That's pretty funny, actually!

 IBM: "Use our Java Development tools for all your interactive application
needs."

AS/400 Programmer: "Great! Is that what you guys used to create the
interface for your own development tools?"

IBM: "What?!?!  Are you nuts?!?!  Everyone knows Java is too slow for for
interactive applications!"

Actually, the user-interface components are not Java and will not work on
MAC OS. Like many Java-related things, the user-interface elements in Java
where too slow so IBM opted to use native platform components. That is they
integrated support for Microsoft Windows Common Controls.

Rohn,

WDSc is written in Java.  Should run with no problems on the Mac.  Free to
order from IBM if you've got a license for OS400.
