That's a nice dream & would be fantastic...but don't see either MS or IBM playing nice for those of us who would run this.

These SD> days, I'm looking at getting into fishing as a side hobby since I'm SD> evidently in fishing country out here. Many years ago...bought the worst car I ever owned...67 VW Fastback. The money/time I spent on that was amazing...but I wanted a VW. When I got married...the wife/I looked at a Type 2 which needed brakes...but did run for $500. More recently...started looking again & found that time is a very cruel mistress with most of the AC Type I-IV's have rusted away to nothing in fields & such. Even with the money...I have no where to do the work...while getting TG/2 running...don't have the same limitations.
