Also, if you're in the European Union, and maybe one or two other European
countries, you already cannot order a factory new mainframe prior to a z9
BC or EC model. That's due to some EU materials regulations way beyond
IBM's control. I believe it's also not possible to import even a used
pre-z9 into the EU.
Isn't it something we call FUD ?
The most happy of RoHS was ...IBM (and other suppliers). IBM is proud to claim,
only newest model are RoHS complaint. Another method to fight with older
generations. Primary and IMHO the most effective method is pricing. Usually it
is simply cheaper to change machine instead of upgrading '-1' generation.
However it is perfectly possible to buy second-hand machine, even 9672 if one
wants.
