Notwithstanding the BC/Bitcoin humor, no, IBM said there will be no EC/BC
distinction. Part of this announcement is simplification-no EC/BC, no
"System z" vs. "zEnterprise". This is a good thing.

 

Now if IBM can just get people to stop saying "zSeries" (now dead for a
decade!). Of course, there are still IBMers with "zSeries" in their titles,
including folks in sales. Pretty sad.back in the day, the IBM branding
police would have had those folks executed!

 

(I noticed that several of the IBM releases yesterday still said "zNext" in
a few places-somebody didn't do a good job of updating after the name got
finalized.)
