Then again there are those who think the z/Series and the AS400 are so irrelevant nowadays the "quasi monopoly" isn't worth a fig...
But I'm sure we're gonna be told how strategically important for scalability and the rest of the world the z/Series and the AS400 really are. And how their takeover of the entire world of IT is just about to happen.
Oh well, can't have everything. Thank God.
