Well, I ranted a little about this a couple of weeks ago.  For those who
may have "heard" that the IBM i5 (aka AS4/00, aka iSeries) was a
"dinosaur" maybe Kat needs one of these babies for her project:

* up to 64 processors
* minimum 16GB to 2TB of MEMORY
* up to 190TB of disk (add mirroring, RAID at your option)
* partition a single machine into 254 seperate machines running at the
  same time
* Runs i5/OS, AIX, Linux, Windows servers (up to 60!), Java, Websphere...

And since it runs Linux Euphoria SHOULD run on the machine  :)  Don't 
look at the price tag...sticker shock!

Shell Canada has already placed an order BEFORE it shipped!

Now if I can only convince my wife to let me put a raised floor in the
guest bedroom....
