Back in my Boeing days mainframe systems were defined as any Large scale system processor, Cray, PDP/Vax CDC SCS systems, some of these boxes were much smaller that today's new z15 processors, some much larger :)

That depends on what you mean by "mainframe". By the classic definition, those 
aren't mainframes.
