Virtualization Takes Off on Entry Power Systems
,----[ Quote ]
| It looks like server virtualization really is heading to the mainstream on
| Power Systems machines, if some figures provided by the top brass at IBM are
| any indication. While logical partitioning has been available on OS/400-based
| servers since V4R4 was launched with the Northstar PowerPC servers back in
| 1999, it has been embraced mostly by big shops with big iron even as Linux
| and AIX partitions were added to the logical partitioning mix.
