RPG and 5250 screens are like music CDs?

Posted by: Mark Fontecchio
IBM System i

The iDevelop blog has a recent post comparing the music industry to the IBM System i. In particular, it looks at how the reluctance of the music industry to embrace digital music — instead continuing to push CDs — is similar to System i end users’ reluctance to embrace PHP and other newer System i technologies, instead continuing to embrace green screens and RPG.

What do you think?

and jesus said “oh, snap!”

September 7th, 2009

another sign of the times: nick in tampa, florida says the sodas in his small office used to be free, but now they cost 50 cents. and yet, when they’re left out “unguarded and unsecured, naturally, people steal them,” nick says. eventually, one coworker thought instilling the fear of god would make for a good theft-deterrent…which inspired another coworker to quote scripture in protest of the new drink policy.

jesus is watching you steal diet cokes
