I'm not an AppleScript expert myself but I've seen AMAZING things done
with it in terms of connecting and screen scraping mainframes.
There's a 70% chance that you may have trusted your life to this
particular implementation of AppleScript.


Also saw an awesome inventory system built on it in a weekend that was
enterprise capable.  The existing app ($30k per seat!) had broken down
and their tech support couldn't get it back up.  This system was
mission critical so, while tech support was working, this AppleScript
guy built a replacement system and implemented it!  It was able to
display pictures of inventory, had full searches, all kinds of
features.

It ran the biz for almost a week before the original app could be
repaired and restored.  By that time the users liked the new app so
much that, to this day, both systems are in each location.
