This project is NOT the IBM Advanced Workstation. There is a totally separate project that is not based on the IBM PC. While it is not likely that the PC based machine will be marketed, there is a rumor that a production line for the Advanced Workstation has been built. Unless IBM changes its mind (which may happen) the Advanced Workstation will, eventually, be an official product. More rumors welcome ! Yuval Tamir
