It took me 2 years to finally get the upgrade from 5.4 to 7.1.
Nothing will be happening today....tomorrow.... or in the next couple of months (or longer).
I know I will be asked how much life is left in the Power 8 before the Power 9.
If I got the go ahead for the Power 8 today I do not think I would be able to contain my excitement.
Just trying to be prepared for the questions.
Thanks!!

Oh yea, that's like going from a Yugo to a Ferrari. The 525 is (was) a fine
box, but it's Power5 and such. Even a 4 way would be a massive upgrade in
power.

I am not familiar with the 525 and whether or not the new S812 will cut the mustard for you.

Hi All,
Several months ago I put together a proposal to replace our i5 box
(9406-525) with a new shinny Power 8.
This proposal is going to be pushed again.
Does anyone know when the Power 9 box/config are going to be announced?
The config/pricing of a Power 9 will be different than the Power 8.
Thanks!!!!
