Well that might be a problem on a level of VM that doesn't[1] support
Unix, but on z/VM that would be an easy chuckle; just run "cat
/etc/passwd" and photograph his expression when he reads the output.

[1] AFAIK that includes VM/SP and HPO, but with luck he'd make the
same request for VM/ESA or z/VM.
