He needs to see a description of small box running OS/400
and what it does.(9406-250)

Then give a description of a HUGE box running similar apps
all using the exact same OS as the "little box". (9406-890)

Show the scale from the bottom to the top.

This is what seperates OS/400 from all others.

After the "scaling", get descriptions of huge networks of
boxes all using different applications but sharing of data
between anybody in the network. The insurance guys are an
excellent example of that.(1200-1500 boxes in one network)

The multi-OS on a single machine is also worth discussion.
