An interesting question comes to mind:
Are there any minicomputers that are currently produced?
IBM System p, which is a POWER7 platform integrating what was known as
System i, formerly known as iSeries, and before that, AS/400, which was
largely derived from the even earlier System/38.
If so, what makes them a minicomputer?
History? Or that it doesn't fit very well in either the minicomputer or
mainframe categories?
