                What does the CPF stand for in message   CPF0000

                How big are the space pointers(bits) in OS/400 and how long
have
        they been
                that size.

                What was the internal project name that eventually brought
us the
        AS/400 ?
                And what did the letters stand for?

                See bottom

                Subject:        AS/400 trivia questions

                I am looking for a couple of good AS/400 trivia questions.
                Anyone have some good ones?

                I need these for a meeting this afternoon.

                TIA,  Joe Teff
