AS/400 has typically 200 or more processors...cool eh!
Oh man did I just say eh...I am such a hoser.
Hmmmm, I'm not as familiar with AS/400 as I am with RS/6000 from IBM. I am not aware of *any* IBM server with 200 or more processors in a single cabinet (not counting clustering). The Sunfire 15k can take up to 106 CPUs in a single cabinet. IBM usually has fewer much more powerful processors per cabinet. The most I've seen in an IBM box is 32, but I haven't kept up with IBM servers lately, although I *really* liked their equipment when I used it. If you have any links to IBM models with that many I would sure like to check them out.
