Maybe even a monitor and keyboard port on the back with a built in LPAR tool so I can admin my AS/400-iSeries-systemi-POWER server without having to by another server/workstation with a different OS to configure it? How about some actual low cost hardware that developers can buy and learn/develop on? How about making all the IOA's and hardware the same serial numbers and prices as the pSeries and stop charging me more for the same thing?

Web 2.0 is a term used to death -- so I'll just say the new logo looks very clean and modern. They did a good job designing it. Interesting post - looking forward to hearing more about POWER.
