AS/400 family
By contacting AS/400 system resellers or IBM itself, you can obtain a demo of the basic operating principles of the AS/400.
Nevertheless, it is good to have a good reason to ask for a demo of the AS/400, otherwise it will be difficult to find someone willing to offer it.
In other words, you can find out who will show you a demo of AS/400 only if you have an interest that can result in the purchase of this product.
This category includes, for example, companies that want to change their management system and were pointed towards the AS/400 platform, which they currently do not know.
In this context, by contacting an AS/400 system vendor, you can surely find those who are willing to make a demonstration of this hardware.
It should, however, be pointed out that a demo of AS/400 and the functionality of its operating system really makes sense only for the company’s IT technicians if they come from the Unix, PC or mainframe world.
The staff of the company normally comes into contact with the operating system only for the management of prints and little else. For the rest of the time it operates only with the interface of the management software.
If your interest in a demo of the AS/400 is, instead, aimed at learning how to use it for personal purposes, read the content of the section “Learning to use AS/400”.
