Hi Alan, Is there any chance IBM could possibly come out with an official announcement or publication indicating their $250M savings by consolidating to zSeries Linux? That might be a good marketing tool. Sometimes we need to convince the uppers that this is a good way to go (I'm still trying to do that here!) Every bit of fuel we can get helps!!! Thank You.
