RE: Which PASE AIX Version

Hi, Doug:

If I interpret this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_RS64#RS64-III
correctly, which I got from here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System_i#CPU_in_AS.2F400.2C_iSeries.2C_i5.2
C_Power_Systems, it is in the Power 3 set of processors. I believe the III
in the processor name is the dead giveaway.

I have a 270 22A5 which has a RISC-Pulsar processor running v5r1. I'm
looking at running SETI BONIC in the PASE environment. I'm wondering

which

is the best AIX version to install. My 1st thought was the "BONIC Client
6.10.58" as shown below. But, why I'm questioning all of this is the

last

line at the bottom "12% faster than the PPC/Power application on

Power3/4/5

CPUs." I don't know what Power chip my 270 has.
