IBM sells to (4) core computer market segments, as far as computer hardware 
systems are concerned:

Z series - mainframe
P series - RISC servers/workstations
I series - mini computers (current models are PPC based)
X series - intel/intel clone systems

Can you point us to a reference URL where IBM placing the ThinkPad name on 
mainframe systems?
