I'd rather have enhancements than bug fixes.  We're a little short on
serious
MPE bugs anyway.  Now just how am I going to get my copy of MPE/iX 8.0 then?
Another $500 to HP?  That would be OK with me.... Another $500 for 8.5?
That
would also be OK with me....  Anyone for 9.0?  How do the vLab people get
paid for their time though?  Linux is NOT a good business model to follow in
that respect!  There needs to be financial incentive for this all to happen.
