I am sure he wouldn't have a hard time on OS/400. I think he shows a bit of exaggeration in this article, as he is too smart to believe that the world is all object-oriented, but this is writer's right to grab readers attention. This "all-java-kids" was a remark to his statement from some earlier article (mentioned also in this one), where he writes on people being taught only java on programming courses. -- Jarek Zgoda http://jpa.berlios.de/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
