Careful there. You are 2 seconds away from getting banned - I was an operating systems programmer on the AS/400 for 8 years, and spent another few years supporting customers. ;-0
OS/400 is different than any other operating system out there - no contest. RPG dates back to the plugboard programming of the 1950s. But the machine is so much more than RPG.
It was light years ahead of other machines with the integrated relational database, consistent and shared language run time, security features, and consistent operating system patch methodology. I used to joke that an AS/400 was the world's most advanced filing cabinet - back in the day when hard drives were 8GB in size we had systems that terabytes of installed storage, and databases that were tremendous compared to what was available on other systems. OS/400 was the first commercially available 64 bit operating system - we put that out in 1995, long ahead of the 64 bit Unix boxes.
And from a business perspective, we did the best thing of all - we preserved the customer investment in their old code. The AS/400 was extremely backward compatible with prior code, to the point of even automatically recompiling programs to run on new architectures.
Yep it was different. Definitely not for the PC or Unix crowd. But a great machine. The slogan used to be 'Run your business, not your computer' and it fit well.
