if you are only using as terminals there are 5250 emulators you could run on xp that would work, or get thin clients for us as dumb terminals
as far as 5250 software I use to use this haven't been on a 400 in a few years but I liked their software http://www.mochasoft.dk From: Christopher Bodnar [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 8:44 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Conficker & Win9x How many of these machines do you have? You have no support from MS on them and no updates. Wouldn't it make more sense, if cost is an issue, to at least put an OS on there that has updates? I'm not a Linux guy, but wouldn't that be a better option?

That sort of thing requires very little resources, both CPU and memory-wise. that's why an old Win9x machine is perfect for that job.
