Well, best of luck.
Of course it's disheartening to see another VM shop bite the dust but
that's the way things seem to be going these days. Perhaps this is a sign
of the times.
Of course there will, for the most part
Hi all,
It's been 7 years in the making, or tearing down. We shutdown our mainframe
December 31. We ran VM for an incredible 38.5 years and it was a blast,
especially at SHARE and the various incarnations of this group!

Is that the future for the mainframe ?

Wayne,
Sorry to see you moving on... especially after so many years of the
University of Maine contributing great tools to VM. For newbies, IIRC the
CP TRACE instruction began as local mods to CP by the name PER (Program
Event Recording) from the good folks up there.
It's a shame that your

The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is
vanity.
What profit hath a man of all his labor which he taketh under the sun?
I find the idea that there is 'nothing new under the sun' as crippling and
undermining man's ingenuity. It's a singularly cynical passage..all is
vanity, indeed. phooey. Glad you scraped some kind of positive message

Actually, Jack nailed it. (And so did Solomon, for that matter.)
In context, running the stuff on Windows is truly nothing new under
the sun. But some shops will do that because someone thinks Windows
is sexier than VM or MVS or Unix or ... whatever. Vanity!
