It all depends on how such things are measured. Our dominance isn't as pervasive as it once was, as alternatives have matured. Is that losing?

 And let's face it,
backup/restore mechanisms for Windoze-based (or ?ix) platforms just aren't very robust. I just spent the better part of two days restoring a 400G hard drive from DVD backup and it was NOT FUN! And I use regular incremental backups!

I use much more robust mechanisms for backup/restore on Windows, i.e. IBM 3494 with 3592 drives or STK SL8500 with LTO4 and T10000A.
Why don't you do it? <g>
Do you have something "more robust" for mainframe ?

Oh, sometimes I use CD-R for mainframe data, however I'm aware of its "strenghts".
