Damn impressive. Mainframes have never had the peak processing power that multi-system x86 clusters have had, but they have UNBELIEVABLE bandwidth throughout their system buses. I've always wondered why some of the big web hosts didn't grab one of these and reduce their footprint and power usage.The z10's capacity is equivalent to 1,500 servers based on the popular x86 design, IBM says, though it has 85 percent lower energy costs and takes up 85 percent less space than the batch of x86 servers.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
