No to windoze on the Z. What I think the author is trying to say is if you have x86 boxes be they unix,aix, or the dreaded w word you should be able to port the apps to Linux on the Z and run there.
Does anyone read it this way?? There is always bochs for the Z... Just ask David Boyes about his experience with it Mace ________________________________ From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Perry, Bill Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 7:53 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: FW: Question about z/VM...

The following link makes it sound like you can run Linux and MS Windows virtual servers on z/VM 5.3. Is this the case? We are looking for a Main Frame / Enterprise Server that will run x86 based OSs like Linux and MS Windows. Regards, Bill William Perry San Joaquin County Information Systems Division 24 S.
