All RISC machines can run SSP 7.X,,, since back around 3.6.... they
still
have to have OS/400 running but, that only has to have 1 terminal
attached...
other than that, it's a S/36 body and soul and I believe you get or can
get
Text Mgt with it.... In fact you can order most of the old S/36 stuff
with
the exception of communication type utilities which OS/400 can
handle....
Really pretty neat... but a 436 may be a better choice from a operations
stand point.....
