,----[ Quote ]
| IBM has announced a range of Power7 servers
| for the i and AIX user communities. (These
| machines support Linux, too, but that doesn't
| define their markets.) Mainframes based on the
| z11 (which will share some components with the
| Power7 chips and which could end up with a
| different name) are expected to debut before
| long.
