Eric,

>>Are you sure that RS-6000 AS-400 uses PPC 750? As far as I know all RS-6000 series of servers are based on either Power2 or 604e. Power2 is a 64-bit implementation which benefits server applications. 604e is much more "multi-processor friendly" than 750 so I don't think 750 were used in these servers.<<

Actually no. I (perhaps stupidly) assumed that the RS-6000 and AS-400 series would be upgraded like the Macs. Does anyone know? Anyway the 604e computers were plagued by underestimation also and so the question remains: who or what is the reason?
