To be honest, out of curiosity I always peek the systems in use when I'm served as customer.

Me too!  When I first started going to Kaiser the doctors had Attachmate running with a long row of PF key buttons across the bottom of the screen.  Years ago they switched to a GUI system. But... in Southern California there's a beer/wine/liquor store called BevMo and when I recently asked about a particular bottle, I looked over and the guy was typing on a TN3270 screen.  I guess if something works, why change it?

Curious: are you sure it is 3270, not 5250? AS/400 family is quite popular in retail.
I had many false detections.
BTW: Our blood donation system use AS/400 system. Several years ago they used real (hard) terminals. Now it is PCOMM. However doctor told me there are plans to replace it with new shining gui&mobile system. As far as I know they saw some prototype and they are very unhappy about the change. Current system is simple and even new personnel have no problem with that. <sarcasm on> The new one will be modern, with all possible modern features - malware, ransomware, data lost, logic errors, administrative interface for PFCSKs connected via Internet...
