I find sad that many aren't aware how many cool features are available in IBM and Unisys mainframes, still not available in mainstream computing.

The AS/400 (IBM i) and ClearPath are my favourites.

One with its TIMI architecture and kernel level JIT, the other with an history going back to the 60's using an almost memory safe systems programming language, while people are still debating how to replace C.

Is there an article that compares the features present in Power vs x86 and this almost memory safe language?
