In fact, any Amdahl machine after the 5995M is not even designed by Amdahl any more, it is designed by FJ, and re-marketed by Amdahl. Amdahl doesn't really have a mainframe business any more, it's FJ's business. They aren't even independent any more, having been partially swallowed up by Sun, IIRC. -- Jonathan (who quit working at Amdahl after the 5995M was completed)
