I've noted that this is effectively the smallest available z13. If I read the trend, the z/Next and beyond won't offer a machine small enough for us. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
