Thought nowadays zSeries was really a bunch of Power chips under the

I don't know about the FICON and ESCON cards, but the OSA's used Power
processor in them. The main CP's are NOT Power chips, they are
"mainframe" CPU's. I not even sure what to call them, z9, z990, z900,
or 390 architecture, but they are not Power.
