.Net will require two or more servers to do something that can be done with one.
I won't say "better" to avoid discusion, but certanly one AS/400 alone will be more reliable than windows + the AS/400, will be less expensive, will be easier to administre, will be faster...

And, if you already know RPG, just use CGIDEV, you only need to learn a few functions.

of doing anything you want and arguing which is "better" is a religious
argument at best.
