Jim tried to get me to change my presentation when I went to Toronto.  You
are right - Linux on System z doesn't even fit in most powerpoints :)... So
I made it z/Linux (adding the dash made him a little happier :).  But, hey,
I'm the customer and I'm sticking with z/Linux!

Jim - this has been an interesting discussion. Thanks to you and all the
participants.

How to refer to "Linux on System z" in short form came up as typing "Linux
on System z" frequently in a document or presentation seems a bit much and
just referring to "Linux" is not specific enough.

Thanks all

Lionel:

Neither. As far as IBM is concerned (well our lawyers), it should
be "Linux on System z". Of course you can ignore what our lawyers
say, but IBM employees can not.
