I find it very hard to believe that: "we use MVS/MF only because we have old APPL which wd be expensive to convert to Win/Linx/Ux"
It has taken 20+ years to develope & improve all the Online/Trnx/Batch/Monitor/Tool/Plex/HSM/SMS/DB for MF, because they were needed to run IT. Are all these available today on Win/Linx/Ux today? Do they have as good of a RAS that MF does? Does Win/Linx/Ux provide Vertical/Horizontal growth, CF, ... ? Can a a 'new' big Bank/Ins Co not run MF today?
