Re[2]: Dis- advantages of AS/400

["Eric DeLong"<eric.delong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

     I knew Linux was going to get tossed into the hat sooner or 
     later.... Personally, I think the AS400 and Linux would be a very 
     happy pairing, and don't see it as a threat at all. IBM seems to 
     want Linux to succede, since they've decided to port DB2 to the 
     platform. (Is DB2/Linux supposed to be open source? Just 
     wondering..)

I know this is not really apart of this thread, but I think the only thing
that the AS/400 has to fear is Linux.
