One thing we can see is the number of jobs supporting mainframes is down. This may be because mainframes are all running much more efficiently, and we don't need sysops and programmers nearly as much. But I don't think so.
Certainly, compared to the numbers of people supporting non-mainframe systems, our numbers are small. But that's a different story. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
