No one wanted the AMISYS Client/Server (Unix) then. What makes them think
anyone would now?  We are using AMISYS (HP3000) and will convert to some
other package when the time comes.   AMISYS is not even being looked at.

any

        The last I knew of these things, in 2000, there were around 200
Amisys
        sites.
        I have heard Amisys is looking to convert the whole application to
run on
        Unix. They will use Micro Focus Cobol, Cognos Powerhouse for Unix,
Supertool
        for Unix and Oracle RDBMS to recreate the environment. This sounds a
lot
        like the aborted Amisys Client/Server product. If it is then they
may be
        able to bring it to market sooner rather than later.
        I have not heard if they are going to do a vendor specific Unix
flavor. They
        are a VAR for HP and do a land office business in HP hardware so it
is a
        safe bet that  it will, at least,  run under some form of  *NIX
(that's @NIX
        for us MPE folks) that HP supports.
        The opinions expressed herein are my own and not necessarily those
of my
        employer.
