Why Unix Experience Matters for System i5 Sales
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
A few weeks ago, when I wrote up the announcement that IBM had made to appoint Peter Small as the new director of business partner and independent software vendor channel sales for the System i platform, I said that I hoped to speak to Small as soon as he got back from vacation. We did that just prior to the July 4th holiday, and he gave me some insight into IBM's difficulties and triumphs in the Unix server market and how that experience will help pump up the System i product line.

Micro Memory Bank: Another System i Clone Memory Maker
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
One of the great things about the X64 server business is that there are many suppliers of servers, which affords companies the opportunity to comparison shop for machines that they want to run Windows, sometimes Linux, and rarely (but still a very large number of machines) a Unix variant.

The X Factor: Is Memory-Based Software Pricing the Answer?
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
A year and a half ago, the IT industry was just beginning to come to the realization that the advent of multiple cores on processor chips was going to wreak havoc on software pricing. Since that time, vendors have been wrestling with how to price software on products where more and more processing elements, virtual threads, and even whole virtualized machines are zooming around dynamically inside of a single physical machine.
