No, I get it.  I only got one because I wanted to tinker with POWER but didn’t realize how odd the POWER5 was.  In retrospect, more research was needed on my part.  But given that I have it now, I’d sure like to get it working.  I was considering offering time on it to the ppc64 team to do tests with if they’re interested.  But I suppose the world has moved on.
