Hi Rob,

32 is possible, don't know what the largest currently is, would have to check with some buddies still on the 'inside'. I can't refute what you say about Wildfire because I don't know very much about the boxes and architecture. I believe what you say about scaling, but you did not mention one of the S/390's core strengths, which is the channel subsystem and it's I/O capabilities. Does Wildfire in any way compare??? Somehow I doubt any of these machines can handle as many devices, but tell me if I am wrong.

Regards,
John
