I think it's interesting that the product we had before Omegamon and the product we've gone to after Omegamon use 3270-oriented displays. (SystemView may have web access, too. I don't know. But it isn't needed for the parts I've seen.) The availability of and access to data trumps cleverly devised and massively customizable gui displays. I admit I'm a Luddite; my attitude doesn't count. The attitude of the CICS/MQ/DB2 people that couldn't find their critical data DID count.
