Hi Alan, Is there any chance IBM could possibly come out with an "official" announcement or publication indicating their $250M savings by consolidating to zSeries Linux? That might be a good marketing tool. Sometimes we need to "convince" the uppers that this is a good way to go (I'm still trying to do that here!) Every bit of fuel we can get helps!!! Thank You. Paul Adrian.

These will be deployed on z/VM. The architects of this endeavor are working closely with the lab to ensure that the project is a success. (Just as our customers do!)
