I've only got experience on z/OS (some z/VM), but I do Linux at home and love it. We're looking at the possibility of replacing the z with an i. I hope, if we do, that I get the chance to transfer over to working on it. We don't currently have any "i" expertise in house. The only thing that I don't want to bother with is Windows. I really despise the software and MS as well. -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
