"According to Webster, a "rookery" is "The breeding
place of a colony of," so colony would be the
collection of birds, rookery is where they breed.  So,
when is IBM going to come out with a new version of
the zSeries boxes code-named "rookery?"  :)"

So much for relying on the advanced education of my
grandchildren ;-)

Would "colony" and "ROOKery" be acceptable terms to a
multinational company, considering the other
connotations of the words? Maybe we should have a
meeting? ;-)

The company, though, seems to prefer dinosaur names
for the big iron (raptor, trexx).
