If Intel architecture, yes. They were doing the off-shore builds prior to sale, so as with the laptops, the first generation or two post-sale are IBM designed, and wear IBM skins when sold by IBM enterprise solutions. The higher end boxes have very enterprise-y reliability/repair features, good for the biggest clusters. The lower end boxes weren't much more featureful than whitebox. Unclear to me from the PR on the sale if IBM still owns their Power/Cell architecture underlying AIX OS. -- Bill Ricker bill.n1...@gmail.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/n1vux _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
