Capacity Upgrade on Demand� Upgrade system with processors and/or memory� No special contracts, no required monitoring (no ability to turn off the capacity)� Purchase agreement

On/Off Capacity on Demand (Post paid)� Temporary use of requested number of processors or amount of memory � Client selects the capacity and activates the resource (registered system)� Capacity can be turned on and off by the client� Information captured by IBM (or reported to IBM)� Rental agreement

Reserve Capacity on Demand (Pre paid)� Processor resources only (processor days) � Capacity can be turned on and off by the client� Prepaid debit agreement� Requires AIX 5L V5.3 and APV (Advance POWER Virtualization)

Trial Capacity on Demand� Allow clients to test the effects of additional processors and/or memory � Partial or total activation of processors and memory� Resources available for fixed time� No formal commitment required

Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Servers, 2004

“IBM continues to executewell on its pSeries strategy,

maintaining the top positionin this year's update.

pSeries execution has been strong throughout 2004, and offers high-end levels of performance that few other

server vendors can match.

This assessment is also based on the Power4+ technology, so with the new Power5-based servers getting ready to ship in volume, their opportunities for quadrant leadership should remain strong.”

IBM eServer Series: the emerging UNIX leaderTrends forecast by Gartner*

� Through 2008, the server operating system shakeout will continue and the server microprocessor shakeout will accelerate

� Only three server OSs predicted to grow share —Microsoft Windows, Linux and AIX®

� Only three server microprocessor architectures predicted to grow share—IA-32, IPF and POWER

� AIX will approach or overtake Solaris as the #1 UNIX operating system
