This is hard to say. Last Aug at share IBM said that the vm version
2 server was to be out the 1st quarter of 1996.

There is a formal ann letter for the Windows NT version 2 server and
the as/400 version 2 server. But I do not believe either is
ga at this time.

On the other hand, In the afternoon IBM Customer Conference call IBM
said that the VM version 2 server without the drm stuff should be out
by the end of the year.

So IBM could still release VM first. But it does not look like they
will.
