IBM claims only a common law trademark in z10. They have a registered trademark on System z (but not z Systems, as I incorrectly asserted earlier). I don't know (IANAL) that there is a statutory prohibition on single letter trademark registrations but I suspect such a registration would be

Fundamentally (IANAL) the test is "might it create confusion in a potential customer's mind." You could not open a restaurant called macdonalds even though their trademark is on McDonald's. (Well, you could, but you would hear from Mickey D's lawyers, and they would be grumpy.) In this case

One more recovery war story. So old that I cannot find a reference in Google. JES2 followed a long tradition when they added support in the 1980s for the 8100 high speed laser printer. While older clackety-clack devices were fairly easy to handle, the 8100 was so complex that JES2 recovery code

Another reason to go to SMP/E packaging from a customer perspective is that SMP/E packaging underlies ZOSMF and CA MSM management of software and fixes. We hadn't used ZOSMF before I semi-retired, but I had used MSM and there are time savings among other advantages.
