To quote from the IBM Sales Manual, "z/OS.e is a specially priced offering of z/OS that provides select function at an attractive price.... Priced competitively, z/OS.e runs exclusively on the new midrange zSeries 2066 [z800] processor." If all you need is OE kinds of apps (WAS, Domino, etc. - No CICS) with the strengths z/OS brings, then z/OS.e is for you. Alan Altmark Sr. Software Engineer IBM z/VM Development
