Are you proofing my "old and grumpy" point, or do you believe that the
System i will last 50-100 years?

Well, cars still have four wheels, and their engines are still running on
essentially the same combustible fuels more than 100 years after the technology
was introduced. But it may be a tiny bit of a stretch to say that today's RPG
code will still run 100 years from now ;-).

A thought provoking question, though!
