I must be missing something.  My original question was does IBM have an
LX86 product for zLinux. The answer is no.  So are you other vendors
saying you have something that works or not.  I am not talking windows
servers-  Linux servers.  Personally I am surprsied that IBM presents
zLinux as a platform to migrate many small linux x86 servers.  It also
states that the system p competes with the Unix large Suns and HP. Then
turns around and makes a product for the system p to address a need which
zlinux could use.  Very strategic and logical thinking.  No wonder they no
longer use THINK as their motto.

It works on more than just Intel gear. It does a fair job on POWER and
SPARC as well, plus building reliably on 390. The 390 code could use a
little optimization, but it does work.

Yes. It has a lot of promise.
