I can see plenty of opportunities for IBM in the Linux arena, but pretty much none of those opportunities closely relate to the set of AS/400 business apps around the world. How would IBM benefit from AS/400 business apps ported/running under Linux? Seems to me the biggest effect would be a drop in revenue from reduced iSeries sales.
