I really don't think too many American companies are moving mainframe
computers to foreign countries, unless the business presence in the foreign
country demands a mainframe. I have to believe that most companies want
their mainframe at home on American soil where it is safe, and easy to
communicate with.
Does anyone know of any American businesses who have outsourced their
mainframe to a foreign country to cut costs when they have little business
presence in that country?

That's why sysprogs are still wanted. However in India, Pakistan, Poland,
Ukraine.
That's result of telecommunication possibilities today.
American managers decide to move American computers to cheaper countries,
just to lower the costs and provide greater profits to American
shareholders. I prefer polish goods, but when polish are significantly
more expensive, I choose imported ones.
BTW: It's matter of economy, not mainframes.
