IBM announces a new "thin" RS/6000 mini-server , new AIX

INTC version (SCO) of AIX due last part of year 2000 but this AIX runs now on the new PowerPC low cost server:

" IBM's Pizzazz machines will be designed as the foundation for
several different server appliance tasks, such as delivering Web
pages or acting as firewalls to protect networks from outsiders,
said Tim Dougherty, RS/6000 e-business product manager at
IBM.

The Pizzazz computers will become the lowest-priced of the
RS/6000 line, which use Power architecture chips such as the
PowerPC and which run IBM's AIX version of the Unix operating
system.

IBM is working with LinuxPPC to make sure the computers can use the Linux operating system as well. "

Nah !
