Wow! Excellent list! Since I came into RPG with RPGIV, I never knew
how totally hamstrung RPG/400 was! ;) *ducks*

Seriously, though, this should at least make her think about what *she*
is missing out on. As mentioned by others, you shouldn't turn this into
an RPG/400 hate-fest...no attacks...no 'my language is better than your
language'. Anyone should see from this that there certainly is a lot to
be gained from RPGIV. More importantly...this shows that a lot would be
LOST by placing an arbitrary law against using it at all.

I can't imagine being forced to not use MONITOR...wow...

Just my $0.02.
