I was being obtuse ... sorry. I interpreted this question as meaning
"why should I develop Java on MPE instead of UNIX or NT?" which of
course required a lot of work on my part to read in all this unstated
context. :) Thus, my answer should be taken as meaning go ahead and do
it MPE, since it is rock, while the others (NT in particular) are more
sandy. :)
