Thanks Phil, I like the following "Users will no longer give up memory for HSA (hardware storage area)". I was crowing about this when the z800/z900's came out and was told we would need to allocate 1GB of 8GB's for HSA.

Will it still be 'z/Architecture'? z/Architecture is the subject of litigation - does IBM wish to include the new stuff in that - changing the effective meaning of the expression halfway through a lawsuit? Or, indeed, _can_ they? Some think not. There are those who believe that any extension of z/Architecture (which this will de facto be) could invalidate at least one and possibly two of the main planks in IBM's case against PSI. There is a LOT going on behind the scenes.
