Good point. SAP is one of those business applications that would "drive" business to a particular platform. Devilishly difficult to find a matrix of what SAP product runs on what platform on their site though.

You say that most folks are moving business apps to Wintel... while that's true, I've been hearing an awful lot of reports of people switching from IBM i to running SAP on AIX.

Yep, it *could*. I was thinking more in terms of someone who has an i and is being told that they need to switch to a "more modern" platform like Wintel. I wonder about business applications available in AIX? I know web serving and DB serving are strong application areas but when I scan my memory for an advertisement touting a business application on AIX I come up dry. I am *sure* they exist (just Google for them) but in terms of mind share for business applications, it is predominately Windows I think.

I guess I'd rather see someone go from i to p than from i to Intel.
