IBM Raises the Curtain a Little on Future Power Chips, i5/OS V5R4
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
While iSeries customers had been told to not expect any changes to the Power5 hardware and only minimal changes to the i5/OS software that comprises the i5 systems, there is still an expectation that the pSeries would get its hands on the Power5+ processors sometime this year.

Will IBM Marry Off WebFacing to HATS?
by Mary Lou Roberts
Dave Slater, IBM's iSeries application development product manager, scoffs at some of the rumors that have been published lately reporting that the company is poised to merge its two green-screen Web refacing tools, WebFacing and Host Access Transformation Services (HATS). "There's not much that is accurate in these reports," he says. "About the only thing that's correct is that we won't leave customers high and dry. We will protect our customers' investments."
