I find it interesting how I interpreted the title of the article, "Java is becoming the new Cobol". The meaning conveyed to me by the title was exactly opposite of what the article was about. To me "Cobol" means "tried, true, and stands the test of time."

It does includes its "the mainframe is just as dead as COBOL statements", but I still think that some in IBM-MAIN would be interested in the comments about Java, COBOL, and the mainframe. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
