Anyone have a good guess as to current number of z or 390 shops?

With extreme trepidation as per 1 January 2006: z890 - around a thousand z990 - around two and a half thousand, perhaps a few more z9 - around 200 The surprise for me is how small some of them are. LOTS of tolerance and potential for errors. Worth less than you paid for it. -- Phil Payne

Re: Migrating from OPS/MVS to AF/OPERATOR
