It sure is. I once wrote a C++ 3270 'emulator' (actually an API 
for doing robotics on a mainframe) and they work in a similar way 
to the 5250.

Yes, thats something I've noticed to. In fact I reckon an AS/400 
should make a fantastic CGI web server since the hardware 
architecture is nearly ideal for the job - far better than the 
more usual *nix machines. However I've not seen many AS/400 sites 
and never had the chance to try!
