Rosetta?
So is this Apple's Rosetta in reverse, except this is x86->PPC and linux, not OSX.
Seems a tad ironic that IBM should do this. Are the gains that much? Most Apple folk are trying to get native x86 ports of their old software.
And aren't the gains claimed by "repeatedly executing the software" the same that DEC made with its FX-32 and Transmeta made with Crusoe. Those did not pan out to be as great in the end.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
