Hello all,
I have two machines with OS/2 V 3 still running, and it is not called WARP,
but there was a version V3 already called WARP, too, AFAIK. (The machines
are from 1997 and 1999, by the way, and they still have the original IBM
SCSI
drives, no problems so far).
The blue screen is not

There are actually sites still running

there was something about after (7 years ago today), secret service was

I would be interested in finding out what the real hardware and opsys is
that these reporters are so disdainful of. And it would be fun for a
community of reasonable experts in computing (IBM-MAIN, IBMVM, etc) to
review and critique the modernization plans. Are they going to a z10?
Windows 2003?
I think you would be surprised how many sites are still running old hardware
and software. Not counting the people still running ESA and OS/390 under VM
on a z/800 or brand new z/9 or z/10. There are actually sites still running
