< Solaris 7 features a 64-bit addressing>is there any other existing OS that can address 64 bit? what OS would IBM use for their new world's biggest computer?why is every one so concerned w. msft instead of IBM? >

Sonki, you should ask others on the thread to respond to your question. My husband is very, very busy. I doubt that I will have a chance to talk to him today.

He has used Sun, HWP and Silicon Graphics workstations. The machine he uses depends upon what kind of project he may be doing. Also, as I mentioned b4, he does not write code for a living. And he does not repair computers for a living.

However, he does write code for fun!!! (He even wrote his own code for a project that he was doing on HWP workstation but a professional built the interface and installed the code.) So what my husband knows, he has learned on his own. He has never taken computer courses.

Since there are so many people here who can tell you off the top of their heads about IBM's new alliance, MSFT's proposed version of high-end NT, you should ask them.

Hopefully, some one will come forward and answer your questions.

I am sorry that I could not help you.
