Can the client software of NetView V4 run on a PowerPC 850?

Question:

 Can the client software of NetView V4 run on a PowerPC 850.  The 
 install/config book says only 40P  or C10 models, but someone 
 had heard that we may support it on  the 850 as well. 

Information: 

 We *suspect* that NetView for AIX should run just fine on the 850 PowerPC
 (it has the same AIX, same CPU...), but we have never done a real test.
 of this configuration, so we don't know for sure.

 Here is what I would recommend:

 If the customer already has the 850 PowerPC, and he was thinking of
 installing NetView on it, tell him it might work.  Tell him to give
 it a try.

 If the customer is thinking of *buying* an 850 for just this purpose,
 then you might tell the customer to wait until we know more.
