 | | IBM announced the RISC System/6000* (RS/6000*, the predecessor of today's IBM eServer pSeries*) family of processors in 1990. |
 | | The RS64 and its follow-on microprocessors, the RS64-II [6], RS64-III [7], and RS64-IV [8], were optimized for commercial applications. |
 | | The focal point for the project was in the IBM Server Group Development Laboratory in Austin, Texas, with major contributions from Server Group development laboratories in Poughkeepsie, New York, and Rochester, Minnesota, as well as IBM research laboratories in Yorktown Heights, New York, and Austin, Texas. |
