Dennis Ritchie has died

18 Oct 2011

...
   When IBM
wanted to port the IBM OS family to POWER, they did the same
 thing. (Z, in your list above.)  
 Tangentially relevant...

 I wonder how many S/360 machines spent their entire operating life 
 running in 1401 or 7080 emulation mode? 
This just dawned on me: perhaps Rich was referring to AS/400 (System i).
That *does* run on POWER now.
