Hmmmmmm... I guess since they(IBM) did this almost 10 years ago with their entire product line(not pc's), they probably forgot that nobody has gotten started on the project. (They did it MUCH earlier but we won't go into that) Did Hector mention the little,teeny,tiny problem they were going to have with the billions of lines of code written for 16/32 bit machines ????? The last I had heard, very little of the code was written to the 32 bit compiler. Did he mention that very little, if any of the existing code would ever run....
