$95K was quoted in the FAQ (page 23)

http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/z9bc/zsq02226_usen_02.pdf

Also the IFL is 37% faster then the IFL on the z/890 (this was for the
z9/bc box).

However, the IFL in the EC box is still $125K.

Did anyone see this article regarding Nationwide:
http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=196700327


The specific item I wonder about is:
"The IFLs don't come cheap.  They're listed at $95,000 each on IBM's
Web
site.  But hundreds of small servers didn't come cheaply either. 
Miggo
estimates they averaged $10,000 each."

The last I heard, IFLs listed for $125,000 each.  Has that changed? 
Or, is
that incorrect infromation (either because the number is wrong or
because
its "Nationwide" pricing instead of list)?

Thanks,
