Since the current Rockhopper is, in terms of hardware only, simply a rebranded z13s, I would say that it's likely to be more successful than previous generations of the Business Class machines for Linux-only clients. I don't think there were all that many of those, in general. Some, but mainframe Linux customers tend to also be running other IBM operating systems. Having said all that, the general Linux community views all mainframes as weird. A lot of them come to love them once they get to know them, others continue to want nothing to do with them.
