RE: LPAR Windows 2003 server

Isn't there a patent licensing problem with the analyst services (OLAP) 
functionality in SQL Server?

That is fantastic news, 64 bit windows and 64 bit SQL Server will rock
running on an iseries. Could you call 64 bit windows and 64 bit SQL
Server on IA64 a "midrange" system?

To my mind one of the best features is SQL Server Analysis Services
(OLAP).
Previous to Analysis Services been included with SQL Server an OLAP
product would typically cost over 10K!
