this page gives some info on System i Domino Edition:
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/domino/domeditionfaq.html

"...Domino Edition provides unrestricted performance for all iSeries workloads 
that are available with the Standard Edition, including DB2 integration. ..."

"...Domino Edition delivers unrestricted performance even when a Domino server 
is not active. ..."

the thing is you need to purchase domino with a minimum of 800 licenses.

Does IBM tell customers who want to run Domino for 50 users to run it on 
windows?

My brother (yes, there is a brother in Pluta Brothers) is currently down at
the Lotusphere convention.  As you might expect, IBM is really pushing a
convergence of Domino and WebSphere, and there is a lot of interesting
direction there regarding the use of Eclipse as the base platform for
developing powerful portal-based Lotus applications.

What you might NOT have expected is that IBM seems to be moving away from
Windows as a server for Domino.  Instead, they seem to really be pushing
System i as the platform of choice for running Domino shops.  Now, this is
just my brother's empirical sense from having gone through the jump start
sessions, but he says the message is pretty clear: if you want Domino, you
want the System i as your platform.

is a domino system i the same as the bumblebee systems in that you cant use the 
system for ILE and RPG programs.  IBM has to be competitive on price with 
Windows work flow and mail servers. But if legacy i5/OS jobs can run on those 
systems, IBM cant overcharge what remains of its i5 customers.
