Bob,

I'm not Brad but I think maybe I get it.

I always wondered why someone at IBM didn't come up with a version of
OS/400 that would run on a PC and/or server.  Talk about a stable
environment.  And if IBM would have figured out how to give OS/400 a GUI
look-and -feel (a "real" one, not simply an add-on), my PC would be in
PC-heaven.  It always seems crippled and unstable by the reality that I
have to run Windows on it.

If a PC could run OS/400 and have a true GUI, I believe people would flock
to it.  But since IBM hasn't done it yet, maybe I'll never "get it" (in the
ownership sense, not the understanding sense).

Bill
