it depends. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Thornton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2005 10:43 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Why Zseries On Feb 10, 2005, at 10:20 AM, Levy, Alan wrote: > The question is why zseries over some other linux (z/os, sun, etc...). > You've just confused me, then. There is no z/OS Linux. There *is* Linux for Sun hardware, but I don't actually know too many people running Linux for Sparc. Did you mean "Unix" up there? So now there's a third question: are you asking for a (fairly narrow) set of reasons for why one might prefer Linux for zSeries over USS on z/OS? Or (broader) Linux on zSeries versus Linux on something else? Or (much more broadly) Linux on zSeries versus Unix-or-Linux-or-another-Unix-alike on any architecture whatsoever? Since your initial presentation is about Linux on zSeries versus USS, the first seems likely (and the easiest to address), but the rest of your question seems to be pointing to one of the other options.
