Re: Attitude of companies toward mainframers working from home?

I've been asked in my current organization to check if I can work from home. Many of my colleagues said they'd be happy to do it if the organization gave them lighter laptops to carry home each day. And a couple raised the question could the VPN infrastructure support that many concurrent users.
