"Hardware revenues for the Systems and Technology Group totaled $5.0 billion
for the quarter, up
7 percent. Revenue growth from S&TG eServer products was driven by iSeries
midrange servers, which
increased 25 percent; pSeries UNIX servers, an increase of 15 percent; and
xSeries servers, which
increased 11 percent. Revenues from the zSeries mainframe product decreased 4
percent compared
with the year-ago period. Total delivery of zSeries computing power, which is
measured in MIPS
(millions of instructions per second), increased 18 percent. In addition to
eServers, revenues
from Storage Systems and Microelectronics increased 11 percent and 14 percent,
respectively."
I'm not an expert at interpreting numbers but, it looks rosy for the Iseries.
I wonder
what regions the sales are happening in?
