Re: Windows on ibm power

Bryce,
I am not sure about current IBM i systems, but once upon a time there was a
special card that allowed you to run Windows NT on the AS/400 system.

Subject: Windows on ibm power

All,
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?


Thanks
