AFAIK, z/VM 4.x has always been the 45K number, regardless of what type of engine. I'm sure one of the IBMers can jump in on this. > If not, I'm trying to recall the $20K/engine that was > announced last year. > Perhaps that was for VIF under IFL? That sounds right; the VIF price was in that ballpark. I don't know whether there's an upgrade available where you pay the difference between the VIF and z/VM price and get z/VM --it'd be the Right Thing To Do, IMHO.
