ok but the statement didn't read that way... it read several different ways 
which is why i wrote what i did ;)

it is impressive isn't it? ;)  the fact remains that there's no newer base than 
the Warp 4 stuff... IBM won't give it out to anyone for further development... 
Warp 4 is the last that can be done... everything else is all the additional 
stuffs... think of it like linux... you have the kernel (Warp 4 in this case) 
and all the additional tools (GNU)... the kernel won't be updated further but 
the tools and accessories can/will...
