Walden,

Been a long time, but I left IBM and am back in the mainstream. Sadly the
iSeries aka IBM i Operating System is on its way to extinction IMHO and in a
very short period of time. Read details in my blog:
http://i-nsider.blogspot.com/

would IBM sell IBM i to another company? Are there any companies that
would buy it?

I am thinking that open sourcing IBM i is not likely because that
might expose security flaws in the system. Which would open IBM up to
liability claims.
