The announcement in February is scarcely news. I predicted 'late 2007 or early 2008' back in June 2005 ( http://www.isham-research.co.uk/mainframe_2008.html ) and the dates have only firmed up since then.
Shipment in 1Q is a mild surprise - I was expecting April. Whilst I happily accept the overall performance claims, I'll be interested to see variations between workloads. The LSPR guys have likely been having a fun time. And it's the small ones that will really be interesting. Let's see what the physical granularity is like. -- Phil Payne http://www.isham-research.co.uk +44 7833 654 800 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
