>> Well, run businesses mostly. There are no games, no leisure programs, only business. Just how IBM likes it I guess.

Oh, there are games!

http://www.jcrcmds.com/jcrgames2.html

Battleship, blackjack, minesweeper, video poker...

That site has a bunch of useful stuff on it, actually.

Zend also has PHP which you can install. And IBM has WebSphere which is based on an ancient version of Apache, you can actually serve web pages with it, and build your own web apps that interact with DB2. Fun stuff!

What you want to do is find a copy of IBM iAccess tools (iNavigator etc) and you can do some fun stuff with it.

Oh, those games are a good “hit” of AS400! It feels so nerdy to imagine a game on an AS400, but also not because it’s still AS400
