Re: DDR4 was Re: 2017 planning and budgeting - Power9 Gets Ready ToRoll In Systems In 2017

I'd bet my next paycheck it won't. I'm guessing (I have no real knowledge
one way or the other) V7R3 is the bridge OS version between P8 and P9.

Do you think P9 will support V7R1?

In the immortal words of Keith Thrash - "Twinax cable is great. It never
breaks, and if you have enough of it, you can pull your truck out of the
mud."

And I beg to differ on your opinion of twinax. I went through a bunch
of those. On/off switches breaking. All sorts of issues with wiring.
And the usual CRT issues. Firmware needing upgrades, etc. But I've
also found it's hard to change people's mind when they wax
nostalgically about the good old days. They seem to forget polio,
small pox, depression era poverty, trench warfare and so on.

Oh I hated twinax cable itself, pulling that stuff along the suspended
ceiling usually resulted in half of it coming down and it really didn't like
going around corners and a dodgy screen causing the whole chain to fail and
the older screens having burnt in shadows of the signon screen... but the
keyboard I really liked.
