Nice to see AS/400 turning up on here. When I started my first proper "IT" job, back in the late 90s for a big multinational, they were running their payroll system off it. The main node was about a decade old at the time. The input system for it was a 16 bit VB4 desktop app that wrote text files to a netware share that this picked up. I am always impressed at how these bits of old tech, sticky tape and string were so unbelievably reliable and scalable across thousands of users. I actually actively miss working on this sort of stuff.
