Yep; and as I said in my footnote, I've been a member of Developer
Connection so that I have the full version of DB2 (in all its versions:
for OS/2, WinNT, AS400, Linux, Solaris and AIX) already. But my point
was that it's not something that most people would even dream of using.
Moreover, I don't think that IBM have *any* of these developer editions
available for free download for OS/2 any more; they've certainly stopped
putting them on the CDs of DevCon.
