Fun to read! But whenever I see things like this a couple of items come
to mind:
1) z/OS often gets lumped in with z/Linux as if a move to z/Linux will
save the mainframe. Sure, that will save the *hardware*, but it won't
save the jobs of all the z/OS software folks.
2) IBM needs to make z/OS (etc) available for free for students and
developers so they can run it on Hercules. I'm not sure IBM realizes
that is basically their last chance to ever get z/OS growing again.
