>Actually, if you port Linux over to the 400's hardware, you get Linux >running on a PowerPC chip... which already exists. Doesn't that make Linux on the AS/400 the answer to the question no one asked? Who would want to pay premium AS/400 memory and DASD prices (which are certainly more competitive that ever, but still not the commodity box market) to run as a Linux server? what does it get you? That a nicely configured Dell PowerEdge doesn't? And, for that matter, doesn't Apache stand on the same ground? Where does Apache fit as an AS/400 Web server? Don't read a bigoted tone one way or another here, I'm really trying to figure this stuff out. rp +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
