It does. And not very well either. They're running JD Edwards software on it. . . and the AS400 they have belongs in a museum. . .  :mad:

SAP would be far better, but the locals cling to their hammer and chisel as if their very existence would cease!  :mad:

Sounds to me like both your box and your software are outdated.  We run JD Edwards on an iSeries and it is very fast.  Of course, we just got a newer, more robust machine last year and updated to the latest version of JDE so that probably helps.

SAP has its own unique set of issues and is very resource intensive as well.  There are no perfect software packages.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Agreed. On all points.  :yes:

I actually contributed to the last item on the list - Mapping of Human DNA completed.

Now I wasn't one of those doing the microscopic work, but the work I did supported theirs. . .

Probably the "milestone" of my entire career, and while my contributions were microscopic by comparison, at least my work contributed; no matter how small or insignificant. . .

And I also helped validate the identification and usefulness of the human genes that determine the metabolic rate of modern medicines by the human body. (Which helped explain the variation in effectiveness of normally prescribed doses among humanity). I remember when I took my genetic profile to my doctor, and explained to him the meaning of the report I handed him, he was amazed and asked me if it was possible to prescribe this test to his other patients. He couldn't wait to do so.  :smile:
Very interesting, Palehorse. I've read a little about it. Kinda mind boggling if you think about it .... :spooked:
