Seems like I heard about power6 and later stuff at the pseries tech conf
last summer....and you figure that iSeries gets the stuff after pSeries gets
it...
Did they say anything about iseries on blade?? Which is supposed to be out
sometime I think in early 2008....shortly after the next release of
i5/os...but then, things are known to change in IBM land... :)

Subject: Power6 on System i
I heard from a co-worker, who was at COMMON UK, that Frank Soltis
announced that there were new System p models using the Power 6
technology where the chip speed is 4.7 GHZ with no special cooling
requirements. Apparently Intel could not do this and had to withdraw
their fast processors from the market a while back. He was thrilled.
When they pre-announced last year clock speeds of 4-5 in the press some
analysts called them liars. He seemed vindicated.
He also mentioned to expect new System i models NEXT year using this
technology.
