It's not really about Linux on z. But it is positive on Linux despite it's title. The main thrust is about ARM. But, once Wintel is replaced with LARM (if I may make up my own acronym), I think that larger businesses _might_ be induced to look at the z again. A "full blown" z13 will kill quite a few racks worth on Intel or ARM servers (that's just my feeling, I don't have proof. I'm not a bazillionaire to be able to run such tests).
