It'd be useful with a little more detail.For example, "For the WebSphere family of software products, which facilitate customers' ability to manage a wide variety of business processes using open standards to interconnect applications, data and operating systems, revenues increased 22 percent." Hmmm... how much of what we spend on 'WebSphere XXXXX for iSeries' is diverted into there?
Systems get more powerful. Less bucks buys more bang. And more LPARs means more 'systems' yet fewer 'boxes'. It's hard to tell what the numbers mean.
