Yeah Charles...that's correct, and a good point. I've worked on all of
them, and, and it's a definite difference between the systems. But, if
a user was running JD Edwards on an AS/400, they probably wouldn't see
much of a difference running Oracle on an i, assuming green screen in
both cases.

Correct me if I'm wrong...

But my understanding, and I've never used a S/36 or S/38), is that
from a green screen user's perspective, there's obvious differences
between S/36, S/38 and AS/400....

Now compare that to the difference's between AS/400, iSeries, System
i, POWER running IBM i...

It's no wonder the users still call it AS/400!

Jerry,

It was not quite clear.

Did you call the AS/400 a S/36, because it could run S/36 applications?
Did you call the AS/400 a S/38, because it could run S/38 applications?

If the answer is yes, then calling IBM i an AS/400 is the same thing.
If no, then...
Do you call IBM i an AS/400 because it can run AS/400 applications?
