This is an interesting bullet in the announcement:
Moving selected Linux, Windows®, and UNIX® workloads to a single System z
server: Moving workloads while maintaining distinct server images and current
LAN topology can help reduce systems-management complexity. By managing large
server farms deployed on virtual servers instead of using multiple hardware
servers, the number of real hardware servers and associated physical LANs may
be reduced, which may lead to cost savings. Deploying Linux workloads on z/VM
V5.4 may be particularly attractive if they interact with applications or data
located on the same System z server.
Is IBM pre-announcing the ability to run Windows programs on System z?

I never guess. It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data.
Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to
suit facts.
