Maybe I'm wrong, but I was always under the impression that the AS/400 boxes at work needed 3-phase power?
These days (and for quite a while), the boxes that run IBM i are the same POWER servers that can run AIX and Linux. Before the platforms consolidated, they were still POWER servers, it was just a different firmware between the "i Series" (ran OS/400) and "p Series" (ran AIX and Linux) POWER boxes.
