Chapter 15 - RUMBA

It's true that RUMBA Access/400 is the best connectivity software product for the IBM AS/400. Tony Baritz does a good job in concisely describing how RUMBA can be used as a tool to save a lot of time. Time saving features listed were Macros, Hotspots, and Quickstep. Basically RUMBA Access is viewed as a very powerful tool and more useful than just a 5250 Terminal and Printer emulation software with sizable, switchable, and movable windows. The RUMBA Router is an excellent solution to the limited PC Support router. It would be nice to see this Chapter updated to talk about Shared Folders, Virtual Print, ARPEGGIO Report Viewer, Data Queues, Submit Remote Command, PowerSync and QuickSync.

It would also be nice to see a new chapter on Cyberprise. Cyberprise promises to be a very interesting product for the AS/400 client/server world. Cyberprise essentially Web-Powers your Enterprise with solutions in the Intranet, Extranet and Internet space. This is an excellent way to leverage existing legacy technology investments and bring those applications into the e-commerce arena.
