The new IBM eserver systems are fueled by IBM's newest 64-bit microprocessor POWER4+, which takes advantage of the most advanced fabrication process. The POWER4+ is a "server on a chip" containing a high-bandwidth system switch, a large memory cache and I/O interface. This POWER4+ is a 1-way processor.
Advantages: Robust, Reliable, Give out EXcellent Performance Disadvantages: Could be a Little Cheape
...I have brought load of these IBM PC's for my work, the specifcations of these are;
* Intel Pentium 4 3 GHzProcessor
* 40 GB ATA-100 Hard Disk drive; DVD-ROM drive
* 512 MB of DDR SDRAM Memory
* Microsoft Windows XP Professional
They pretty good and robust you cant fault them as they are really reliable and they never seem to stop work or brake down. What is really good with these pc thats its really easy to get inside the pc as you need no screw drivers to undo the screws as there is no screw on this case. All you to do is push catch in and then slide of the side panel its that easy.
The expansion slots that it has are, 4 x memory - DIMM 184-PIN which good loads of slot to keep ungrading your memory,
3 x PCI - three-quarter-length to add any extrax graphics card of usb ports or etc, 1 x AGP 8x - three...

Advantages: Very hot - great if you are in a cold climate Disadvantages: Overheats
...Pros: Nice big screen, fast processor. When you pump it up to 1GB RAM it works quite well
You can put your coffee cup next to the cooling fan outlet and keep your coffee warm for hours. Great in cold climates.
It's got the IBM logo on the outside. Now that I know that IBM stands for "Its a Broken Machine" I'm no longer as thrilled. I am retiring the machine as a LAMP server and have moved my Windows apps to my Acer replacement laptop.
Cons:
The hard drive died within a week of using it. It was replaced under warranty, but they installed the wrong OS. When the correct OS was installed, it came with free spyware.
18 months later this laptop still overheats terribly, and the IBM workshop took 4 weeks to "fix" it and there is no improvement whatsoever. It's a terrible design flaw, and totally overpriced. I am using a replacement laptop...
