We believe that mission-critical applications will be hosted on x86 systems in greater numbers in the future because of the performance, availability, and ability to meet stringent service levels. We see more and more customers (particularly large enterprises) proving to themselves that these solutions are up to the task. They have found that modern x86-based solutions provide the availability, scalability, and performance necessary to handle their most important workloads. The advent of VMware's sophisticated and comprehensive x86 virtualization solutions coupled with IBM's enterprise-class hardware and software gives mid-sized and large data centers confidence that these solutions can meet the needs of even the most demanding computing environments.
