I have the book (won it a year ago on the zJournal Quick Quiz) and it was very interesting reading. Mind you, I do not have z/VM or Linux here yet and at the time was looking for good arguments to make a case for them. The book certainly provided enough of that. For the experienced VM/Linux types, it may be just like reading someone else's experience on installation/implementation. Can be interesting, but the reader has to decide.
For someone with no knowledge on the subject, I do recommend reading it.

Any good? The table of contents looks good, but that's all that I can see. Of course, at $5.49 for an eBook, it might be worth buy anyway. That is, if we were going to use Linux on our zSeries. I just took it and z/VM down last month. No interest and way to much political fighting from the Windows people. ************************************************ The information transmitted is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
