Stephen In relation to the size of the country and population base there are not many mainframe shops in China. Now that the VSE ones have all but disappeared there are no more that 20 sites spread across less than 10 companies.

It comes as no surprise that if you type in mainframe you see the top 7 cities where searches originate are all in India. Number 8 is in Chile, number 9 Dallas and number 10 Vancouver. Oddly, China is nowhere in the top 10. Maybe the Chinese censors are blocking Google. I know they have their own Google, so another possibility is the "tends" site doesn't capture data from that Google. >---------------------------------------------------------------------- >For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, >send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO >Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
