* To be considered "cool", a feature or facility of z/OS must:
+ Have useful, real world application
+ Be generally unknown by z/OS application programmers
(most people on this list already know these features,
but application programmers are generally not as
current, due to focusing on keeping today's apps
going as opposed to having the joy of developing
new apps)
<SNIP>
Additionally: Serviceability, Reliability, Recoverability, and
performance.
The z isn't rebooted every time you turn around. Also services aren't
stopped and restarted to fix problems.
Problems on z systems aren't tolerated like in the distributed
environment.
