I've just again re-watched Apple's M1 chip unveiling event, and I'm left with more questions than answers.
IBM launched its Power6 processor and servers and set out the challenge for the competition to catch up
IBM is aiming to break all records with Monday's launch of Power6, the latest iteration of its Power architecture.
Shown here are the System p570 servers being prepared for delivery at IBM's plant in Rochester, Minnesota. The new systems promise impressive performance, with IBM claiming benchmark victory over rivals such as Sun and HP.
According to IBM's claims, Power6 systems use the same amount of electricity as Power5, the previous generation, while producing 50 percent more performance.
They come in chunky, substantial looking units with none of the cut-down modesty so favoured by some other companies.
