Thanks for the correction. But, from your comments, I would take it that the System z is simply not worth using, except for z/OS (maybe z/VSE) legacy work. If this is true, then I see no reason why any company would get a z for new work. And, if a company could move its workload from, say, CICS to WAS, it would be less expensive to run that work on Intel.
It makes you think that his purpose in life is to trash System z, at least by the tone of his posts. This should not be the purpose of this list.
