That's very interesting to me as IBM has been rather forthcoming about making sure everyone knows that the 32bit bridge was only temporary and to not rely on it being there in the future. I would hope that would indicate that they may be willing to release more informaation in the future regarding this. Of course, what do I know? :p -- Shawn <drevil_at_warpcore.org> http://drevil.warpcore.org/Received on Thu Jul 24 2003 - 04:06:27 UTC
