- You're right. If the RS6000 came with CP67 or CMS, I could can the VM partition
- on our 3090 and run the dwindling timesharing load on a mid-range RS6000 - that
- would probably be a Good Thing! We have 2 RS6000's here at Delmarva and I
- HATE working on them. I'd rather work on Sun problems or (shudder) SCO problems
- rather than AIX...
