There is another point you might not be aware of. Years ago IBM started
division of the company in 1993 that supported dialup accounts world wide
called IBM Global network. It involved many servers all over the globe.
These included much use of OS/2 as well as RS6000 machines to host both the
netbios network (locally) as well as the TCPIP network (globally). The IBM
Global network was bought by ...... yup you guessed it... AT&T. They
renamed it the AT&T Global network. As I understood they kept all the
equipment as is.... They might have replaced them by now, but the AT&T
network was run with extensive use of OS/2 and RS6000 machines.
