IBM Is Slowly But Surely Coming To Power

[MIK3]

Check out this review on their new Unix server coming out...pretty sweet

IBM plans July launch of Power5 Unix server

growing is good

64 processors sever is awesome!!!
anyone want one??
lol

how about the IBM Rochester? 8192 processors. fourth fastest supercomputer.

or the NEC earth simulator in japan? 5120 processors, fastest public supercomputer in the world.

ibm isn't slowly coming to power. they've been around for a while, and they've been on top. but that power5 server is looking cool.

as far as I'M concerned IBM is a bunch of noobs until they take down Intel and AMD...

except they aren't in that market... just like intel and amd don't make supercomputer processors. oh shit

[Jason425]

well then they had better get in that market..

why do they want to get into that market?
they are SI, and thats that they do best

IBM has taken over all parallel markets, so I wouldn't be surprised if they enter the X86 market.
