The OS is software.  My question is what makes the hardware of the DASD
worth so much more.  I am
 trying to justify an upgrade to e-series AS/400.  One of the main beefs my
IT manager has is the huge difference in
cost.   It irks him so much that he is considering moving all the DB2 files
to Oracle in spite of the millions of lines of legacy
code we have on the 400.   I need a better answer than it works better.

What are the costs of Oracle(with maintenance over 5 years),   what
security package, what other packages,  in addition to the hardware cost.
