Thanks for the history of your decision. I still don't agree with you, but
respect your right to make your own business decisions. When you say you
haven't looked back since then, I would read that to mean you still think
there isn't adequate ways to modernize on the IBM i, and if given the
choice, you would still choose .NET today. Am I correct in that assessment?

BTW I did explore RPG options first, 10 years ago. Then I moved to Perl on
the 400, that was like a dog with 3 legs.

Moved straight from there to . NET and haven't looked back since.

So I ( personally ) jumped over PHP on the I

Bear in mind that some applications need NOT to be dependent on the system
where the data originates as the origin can change. Had I based our
application on the I it would have gone down the swanny river with the rest
of the I based applications when a customer decided ( for their own reasons
) to replace the I ( and some have done )

Business decision?
