Because IBM sells IBM i on Power, and we want a future for out platform?

There is far more difference in both hardware and software architecture between a current model MacBook, and the original Mac128, then there is between, say, an E4B and a B10, and yet they're both called Macintoshes. Likewise, far more difference between WinDoze Vista and WinDoze 286 than there is between V7.1 and V1R1, and yet Microsloth still calls it WinDoze.

Yet IBM feels compelled to change names more often than some people I know change their underwear.
