Why is that even in there? It "only" powers all three current games consoles and IBMs Power Systems server lines (i and p).

If that's a failure, I hope IBM has many more failures in the future.

i work for IBM (not of course a spokesperson for said company) and if I have business justification for getting exotic hardware i get exotic hardware.

I have Sun, SGI, Digital (an old Alpha box) and I have retired my PA-RISC at this point. As long as I can justify it I have never had a problem with it.

If you have to stay on windows (can't justify your unix box) then I'll sing with the rest of the choir; Exceed does the job.
