Re: iSeries Access on MS Vista

I am curious - where did you hear this about the future of IBM i Access 
Client Solutions? I've not heard that this will be the way to go. 
Windows Applications, BTW, is an extension to the basic Java-based product.

One thing clearly stated is that IBM wants us to use the browser-based 
Navigator client instead of the thick Windows client.

I think the Java-based client is very cool - it extends that 
functionality to non-Windows platforms, which is very nice.

Cheers
Vern
