RE: IBM looking to certify Linux

Stephane,

I thought that the 400 runs on the POWER processor, and that the Power PC
processor is not exactly the same thing (maybe a subset of the POWER
architecture).

Yes they both run on power pc.
Apple is one of ibm big customer.
And i never understand why ibm don't TALK with apple.
And i think it will be a better technology merge between apple and as400,
really better than m$ft and ibm.
For example the lastest power pc 970 will be on apple.

Wintel outside :-)

Didn't I read somewhere that iSeries and Apple's will be both be using the
same processors?  Wouldn't _that_ be interesting...
