Linux on System z should be viewed as a purely server environment.
Desktop applications have no place in an environment like this, demoing
Linux on System z as a desktop is really a very poor choice.

A person in my organization wants to show management what VM linux can

and X windows to do a presentation about.
I have advised him to choose another product to demo.
Thanks for all of your responses.

That's pretty unlikely to work, as is
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html . Mozilla has been
"deprecated" and the Firefox page only lists Windows, Mac OS X, and
Linux for IA32.

Hello!
I agree! There's also something else we should ask. Alan, not that it
matters to me, but why do you actually want something that's cycle
eating as a web browser? Particularly one that's graphic intensive?
Surely the text based ones are good for simple inside the site work?
