What's Domino got to do with it? This number is meaningless.

The may have it but exclusively? Hardly. You're still talking in mid hundred 
thousands. Likely there'll be more Windows servers than boxes running OS/400 in 
those shops too (irrespective of the argument that it takes more to do the 
same).

All those many years in existence, and yet not even the same market penetration 
as Windows Server, or Solaris, or even MacOS running as a file server! And you 
still believe that this certainly must mean then, that OS/400 is a mainstream 
OS?
