Hope they make OS4 drivers for it, even if it runs just on 32bit mode. Wasn't OSX goind to run on 32bit  mode too, at least for now?
This is the big advantage of HAL, now they only (ok , maybe not so trivial ) have to do the drivers for it.

:-? who's 'they'?

and there is not really any such '32-bit mode'
32bit software just runs on 64bit cpus

What are you going to use the drivers with? linux?
Jose, there is no point in making 'OS4 drivers' if there is no AOS4 on it! :crazy:

looks like ibm will pretty soon have AIX SMP machines in the bargain basement range... :lol:

asian1,
its probably strictly B2B or somthing

you are right yough, ibm should be a bit more open with their RS/6000 market etc...
im sure there are plenty of individuals who would love to have one sitting on their desk, if only they were more accessable!
