That's nice but economics still requires a price tag, and IBM being
the only provider of this technology means the price will likely be high
and most people will still buy x86 boxes (well x86_64 boxes of 2005, you
can buy today 1U quad opterons*), up to a certain size where energy and
space requirements will dictate something else.
