First of all these comments weren't intended as a personal attack, and I
never indicated that YOU were ridiculous, but rather than the proposed

The primary reason they are ridiculous is that the question that you have
posted cannot be answered in a simple list-server and to suggest otherwise
truly is ridiculous.
The original question is wrong at so many levels, especially if one thinks
that someone might actually be contemplating an I/T accounting/chargeback
system based on an answer from this list.
True. And that's why I didn't respond to the original question. However, the
second question that Miklos posted was entirely different.

For me this more or less clear.
I have here a number of collegues from NT and Unix , and they don't
understand why the 0.5% CPU time is a matter:
As I understand it, this question has nothing to do with chargeback or billing.
It is about communicating with people from a different culture.
Yes , it is the question of the communication with Linux and NT people.
I wanted to explain to my collegues , why the 0.5 % constant CPU usage
for an idle server is a matter in a large z/OS system.
An argument would be, if I could say: in a week it is "nearly" an
hour, and an hour CPU in a large system is about ... $ or ... Euro.
