That’s from an IBM Power 720. Really nice system. It uses the POWER 7 architecture which has a lot of nice features including LPARs (logical partitions) (basically virtualisation without any performance penalty). It’s from 2010 so it’s quite a bit newer than the G5.

It has a lot of nice autocomplete features and handles functions much better than bash. It has a very sensible autoconfig so you can just install and try it.

Zsh can be configured in quite a lot of ways. It’s default config is quite similar to bash.
