Got it, thanks. At first I was thinking zBX too, but that wasn't
available 30 years ago. Then thought maybe AS/400, which people (not
me) sometimes call Mainframes.
Now I'm trying to remember if I ever threw one of my old x86 boxes out
the window. Probably out the door, but not a window.

Had I seen the term hybrid mainframe out of context then I would have taken it
as ZBX, but I assume that Greg meant a small system compatible with a
mainframe, e.g., P/390, PDT.

Maybe just for me, but what's a Hybrid Mainframe?

That depends on what you mean by "mainframe". By the classic definition, those
aren't mainframes.

As a guy who has spent more than 30 years at both IBM and FSI building hybrid
mainframes for customers that I could both lift and throw out of a window if I
had a reason, I can say that there are certainly two t-shirt designs on that
site that were ill conceived. No thanks.
