Not really, no. Regardless of what anybody says, the age of the zSeries is over. It is now, at best, a niche player in overall IT. Oh, granted many will point to the growth in MIPS being used. But that does not translate into jobs for people. That's what I mean by niche. My suggestion, and what I'm trying to do, is learn Linux on various platforms, especially Intel/AMD. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
