POWER has AIX and i5/OS / OS/400. by themselves,
much more
interesting to me than anything that runs on MacOSX. Of course,
I'm "one of those people" who runs Linux on their work-provided
PowerMac G5. I just can't seem to get my boss to want to pay $10k
for a proper POWER5 workstation from IBM. ;)
The POWER5+ workstation on my desk at work costs (retail) a touch
more than half that. It's fast, too.
