Joe,
I don't think you're mud-slinging at all.
This wouldn't be the first time; Microsoft is very good at
assimilating other technologies.
Agreed 100%. Although I would like to know who they assimilated
"Microsoft Bob" from. :) Or maybe that was an original, it would explain
a lot.
However, you've failed to address the main thrust of my last email. Is
much of this great IBM system code implemented on i? Seriously? The
latest link to one of Toshio's articles, refers specifically to
optimizations on IA-32, which I think we can both agree is not the
underlying architecture for i. :) This wouldn't be the first time IBM
had lots of cool stuff, but it wasn't available on i, because i "is
different". :) Look no further than DB2 and ContentManager for two
examples of places where what's on i and what's on other platforms may
share a product name, but don't share code.
Especially after sitting through a couple sessions at NEUGC earlier this
week, I don't accept "it's in there", "we just do it", and "you don't
need to worry about that" as answers for stuff on i.
