I think he had too many martini's for lunch..... :(  I could possible accept
"microcode was optimized to support linux" but even that is a bit of a
stretch.

I just had an interesting discussion with our IBM CE....

We were talking about V5R2 and he told me:

"Expect a 8-10% performance increase because the microcode for V5R2 was all
rewritten in Linux" 

"Future OS/400 code will all be written in Linux too with a GUI over it to
make it look like OS/400"

Hmmmmmmmm ...  Has anyone else heard this?
