Guess I'm not surprised. Why is this any different from a Laptop?
Maybe it's just smaller and easier to conceal.

I hasten to clarify, we restrict program usage, in our
case SAS, by restricting the load library from which it
is executed, for example our permission was written as
follows:
TSS PER( SASPROF ) DSN( HLQ.SAS.LOADLIB ) ACCESS(FETCH)
SYSID(ESYS)
Since our search algorithm is merge, all merge users

I know of one customer that's been in production on z/OS 1.6 since
September 1, 2004. (Maybe they read this list.)
That's 23 days before GA, so I guess z/OS is doing pretty well in the
stability and quality department. :-)
Anyone want to see if they can set a new production record of 24 days
z/VSE, Linux, and z/VM now support FCP as well as FICON, so IBM has been
fairly busy of late. The technology issues are not exactly trivial for
z/OS, so let's see what happens over time.
