How Far Will IBM Push Linux on Power5 Squadrons?
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
IBM started shipping its first two Power5-based "Squadron" servers last week. The eServer i5s, as its first Power5 machines are called, support OS/400 and Linux within logical partitions on the same box; in the fall, they will support AIX, too.

AMD Cops to Dual-Core Chip Plans
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
As many people expected, Advanced Micro Devices this week announced that it would indeed be developing dual-core versions of its 64-bit Opteron processors for servers and workstations as well as its Athlon64 chips for high-end desktop PCs.
