I'm curious. Does anyone know if say a 6 CP model with one book costs the
same as a 6 CP model with 2 books in the z processors? I know that if you
really plan to expand, that it is probably cheaper to start with 2 books
than one if you are going to have more than 8 CPs eventually - at least the
expansion of your processor would be less disruptive. Personally, I would
think that the 2 book model would cost more, but if you are planning to
expand, maybe IBM wouldn't charge you more.

Hi all,
If I use z109 S18 that means two books and allow 18 CPs maximum. If I
select
508 and fill up the book1. Can I order another 508 to fill up the book2 so
that the maximum CPs are 16. Or, I only can select 709 model if CP no
greater than 8?
Thanks
tommy
