Some people seem to think they are going to get something for nothing. IBM provides specialty engines for limited purposes. Does anyone really believe they will purchase a specialty engine at reduced cost and then be able use it to run unlimited work? Specialty engines do not count against aggregated CPU capacity. Does anyone really believe that every other vendor (including IBM) will allow their products to run on specialty engines without paying an upgrade fee?
