IBM is re-branding all of their software WebSphere somethingOrOther. Except for Tivoli and Lotus. So, you don't need to buy WebSphere Application Server, you need WebSphere Development Studio, soon to be renamed WebSphere Development Studio client. In one package you get all the iSeries compilers, SEU, PDM, Code/400, VARPG, VAJAVA and lord knows what else. IF you owned any of the previous products you are entitled to a license for the new, 'all in one' product. http://www-3.ibm.com/software/ad/wds400/ Dazed in Albany, --WebSphere Buck v0.97 (still buggy)
