In fact, it nothing new. It has taken place since z/990. I mean 0-CP
machines for CF or IFL purposes.
BTW: IMHO it's the only way to get the price from the topic.

This is probably a dumb question but I'll ask it anyway.
I noticed in the announcement letter that there is a feature code 3400, "0-way
processor A00". Is this simply a placeholder for customers wanting to buy the box
strictly to run Linux (IFLs) on it? Otherwise, what would be the purpose of buying a
mainframe without any processors?

I ran into one of the hardware team in the hallway, and she confirmed
that this feature code is intended for those ordering IFL- and CF-only
machines.
