I was reading in the 6.1 patch "Read Before Installing" that "the PBA-IB HP-IB A1747A and old CIB I/O based HP 3000 Servers will not be made to work with MPE/iX 6.5 and later releases." Hmmmm. "...not be made to work..." Sounds a lot different than the old: "Yes, it's unsupported but will still work" philosophy. Tracy M. Johnson TRW Automotive
