| It cannot actually run Windows:
"Like its predecessors, the i5 line also comes with technology called Integrated xSeries Server (IXS) that tightly binds an Intel-based server that can share the main server's networking resources. With i5, though, IXS technology now supports Linux as well as Microsoft Windows, a source said."

You would think that with Digital's FX32! to run Windows on the Alpha processor in the past, software PC emulators for Mac (virtualPC?) and Amiga, and even things like JIT to run 68k apps on PowerPC... you would think.... _________________ Men who have girlies in their avatars are Girliemen!

Well somebody has to port UAE or modify IBM?s virtualization software (which duplicates the A1 ecosystem). _________________ Ryzen 9 7900X, DDR5-6000 32 GB RAM, GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Amiga 1200 (rev 1D1, KS 3.2, TF1260, 68060 @ 63 Mhz, 128 MB) Amiga 500 (rev 6A, KS 3.2, PiStorm/RPi3a/Emu68)

| @Hammer:
For some reason, "duplicates the A1 ecosystem" just didn't sound right to me. You mean it's copying my fjord?
@general: It's going to be interesting to see what this baby can do. IBM have some very different ideas sometimes  _________________ This weeks pet peeve: Using "voltage" instead of "potential", which leads to inventing new words like "amperage" instead of "current" (I, measured in A) or possible "charge" (amperehours, Ah or Coulomb, C). Sometimes I don't even know what people mean.
