Power = i + p
Announcement

IBM announces the first of a new generation of Power Systems, a major new platform that provides a compelling new choice for companies of all sizes. IBM Power Systems unifies IBM's highly successful integrated platform, IBM System i, with its fast growing UNIX operating system platform, IBM System p.

Now you can take advantage of a single, energy efficient and easy-to-deploy platform for all of your UNIX, Linux and i applications, of which there are over 15,000 available across all three operating platforms. The first of the new family begins with the new IBM Power 520 Express, the new IBM Power 550 Express and the new IBM BladeCenter JS12, with industrial strength virtualization provided by PowerVM - all designed to help small and mid-sized clients focus on running their businesses instead of their computers.

In this announcement, IBM also emphasizes its commitment to System i clients by recognizing its IBM i operating system (formerly i5/OS) as a top-tier choice on the new Power Systems alongside AIX and Linux. In March 2008, IBM made available a major new version, IBM i 6.1, again demonstrating that it will continue to deliver and enhance the integrated operating system that AS/400 , iSeries and System i clients have valued for over two decades

Jeff Elmore is a Senior Technical Sales Specialist with IBM. Jeff has worked with many customers in many different industries, helping them implement and understand new technologies for the System i Platform. Jeff has over 27 years with IBM, and is a frequent speaker at local User's groups thoughout the Southeast US.

Come and listen to Jeff Elmore present IBM's Power = I + p announcement.
