Smith As of about 1 year ago, a USA-based check printing company was still running their production on an Amdahl box with OS/390. My encryption product had to tolerate 32-bit architecture specifically because of that prospective customer. "If it ain't broke, dont fix it." Their applications were running satisfactorily, so their management had no motivation to upgrade to 64-bit architecture. p.s.: I still order my checks from them. Jeffrey D.
