This surely seems like a good way to start killing the mainframe. Get rid
of the developers of software products for your system. Also, get rid of
all of the really small companies off the mainframe that will never now grow
into large customers. There doesn't seem to be a lot of smarts in IBM in
some areas.
I have a question. I know this has been discussed in the past, but I
haven't heard any updates lately. Does the FlexEs product legally run z/OS
in 64 bit addressing mode yet? The last we discussed it on IBM-Main, if I
remember correctly, you couldn't run 64 bit addressing mode, meaning z/OS
1.6 and above wouldn't run on it.
Why would IBM want to kill off their smallest customers? It just doesn't
make sense. IBM is sure sending a lot of mixed signals! Phil Payne - where
are you?
