RE: The future of computing

The question is:

     Will the AS/400 require re-booting when it is utilized as a Windows
2000, Citrix, Linux, and, or x server.

I had to reboot my 720 web server a couple weeks ago.  The As/400 is not
"reboot proof".  It hadn't been down for a couple months, but still.  My
linux box at home never is shut down.  come to thing of it, neither are my
three M$ boxes either.  :)
