In the same presentation Oms also mentioned their plan for Linux version,
though they seem to indicate this will be a server-only "BlacBox kernel".
It is not clear to me why Oms are holding off on full BB for both Linux
and 64-bit Unix. Perhaps they are concerned about manpower resources
needed to support such releases?

I wonder what would be the market and how much it would cost per seat.
Who on this list is running a 64-bit OS?
