Hoo-boy.   I'm not real sure anyone else (including Microsoft) has figured
that one out.  IBM is supposedly trying to build a new operating system
out of something that looks like (but is different from) windows.  I've
got Windows, run it everyday, but I still don't know what it does or why
I bought it.  Good luck.
