This sounds a little derogatory, John.  I think most people know all
computers don't have Intel processors.  Most people have the majority of
their experience with RHEL on Intel or AMD processors.  There's a
difference.  :-)

If you ask here for recommendations, for any task, how many will suggest Sparc*, Power*, S/360's descendants (currently zSeries) or ARM? Or even Itanium?

If you want good I/O for a fast webserver/database server, IBM's zSeries is hard to beat, though you might get an argument from Sun. If you want high-power, high-scaling CPU, IBM's Power* CPUs are worth a look.
