  IBM Power5 prototype tests
Time: 08:01 EST/13:01 GMT | News Source: Macworld UK | Posted By: Byron Hinson

IBM this week confirmed it is running the first working prototypes of its multi-threaded multi-core Power5 processors in its labs. The Power5 chip will appear in some high-end server products starting next year. It is the next generation of IBM's PowerPC-based Power4 chip, on which Apple's G5 processor (which IBM calls the PowerPC 970) is based. Discussing the Power5, IBM director of technology assessment Joel Tendler said: "We've already booted AIX, Linux and OS/400. We're deep in the middle of test cycle."
