Those office tools require bitmapped displays which OS/400 does not support.

No one has argued that people on this list do not want OS/400 on their PC. I stated that outside the scope of this list people with portables do not want OS/400 on their portable. I also stated that to think that a portable version of OS/400 would topple microsoft's monopoly is ridiculous. James Rich james@eaerich.com
