Trevor,
Did that included SSDs so the programmers don't have to worry about drive
arm access impacting database performance?
Thanks,

Subject: Re: IBM i on Power: Was Classes for IBMi/iSeries?
In France last week, I was talking with a software company guy who had
just ordered a new Power Systems server to run IBM i. He made the comment
that when he configured it, he included a SAN, PowerVM was a big part of
his new configuration, and there were a bunch of new things that
completely amazed him. This was so different than any previous server he
had built - including all the previous generations.
Then he said, "but the programmers won't know any difference".
And, there's the rub.

As much as I hate to get dragged down on this subject (again) I have to
say that I agree with Trevor.
We are planning a fairly big migration to a nice new pair of mirrored
Power 770's. One of the execs on the planning committee asked me how I
felt about having the iSeries run on a pSeries server...
Being originally from MN, all I can say is Uff Da!
