Given that the 400 can do a "lot" of Unix things "now", the "Linux"
thing
isn't too much of a stretch...... This Linux thing keeps rolling right a
long.... It's about time for IBM to drag out that multi-OS on one box
again... This was discussed in detail a few years back, then dropped out
of
sight.... Look for some version of Unix/Linux running on a 400 if demand
continues.....
