Re: sys/36 to as/400

[ericadelong@xxxxxxxx]

Not exactly true..... 
The real performance problem with running S/36 apps on the AS400 is S36E. This 
is an emulation environment which allows you to run S/36 code with minor 
modification. Native environment apps do not suffer from these penalties. A 
larger machine could, despite S36E, outperform any S/36. 

Also, the F02 is, IMO, a dying machine in that CISC support is declining. The OS
(up to V3R2M0) will stop being supported soon (next year I think). This makes 
upgrading to this machine a pretty hard sale.....

I am going to give up my plans of the F02.  I will look into a used 436 for 
the job as it seems this conversion and such will really hurt my 
performance.  
It seems that my sys/36 is a real screamer in comparison to some as/400's 
out there.
