RE: Windows on ibm power

There used to be an FSIOP (later named IXS) card that you could get for the
system. It wouldn't run OS400 - it ran winblows instead. But in a sense
(only in a sense), you had OS400 and winblows running on the same hardware.

IXS is probably still around. (?)

I was having a conversation with someone yesterday and they mentioned
that
they remember that you could run windows on the same box as an ibm i.
Now,
I immediately was suspicious of this statement but they claimed that
about
10 years ago there was a special processing card that you would put in
the
machine that would be used to run the OS. Can anybody clear this up?
Is
it possible to run IBM i and Windows on the same hardware platform?
Even
considering virtualization options is this possible?
