Book Description: The Internet has become such a powerful instrument for business and communication that it would be hard to imagine operating without it. The business benefits of having an Internet presence are undeniable. Any AS/400 company that doesn’t have an Internet implementation is going to find itself losing market share—it’s that simple.
