AS/400: Still Kicking After 21 Years
,----[ Quote ]
| There are some smaller mainframes running IBM's z/OS, VSE, or VM operating
| systems, Unisys sells some relatively small MCP and OS2200 mainframes, and
| there's still NetWare of a sort from Novell that you might consider
| proprietary (it is basically NetWare services running atop Linux at this
| point). Bull even has an emulation layer that allows GCOS 7 and GCOS 8
| applications to run on its Itanium-based Novascale systems running Linux.

Survey Predicts Continued Strong Growth of Linux Use on Mainframes
,----[ Quote ]
| The study surveyed 100 IT executives and managers at companies with at least
| $2 billion in annual revenue about their use of the Linux operating system on
| IBM mainframes. 93% of respondents projected that their use of IBM's IFL
| (Integrated Facility for Linux) specialty mainframe processor would increase
| or at least remain steady over the course of the next two years. 42%
| projected that their use of the IFL would grow between 21% and 40%, and 10%
| projected that it would grow more than 76%.

Ballmer Still Searching for an Answer to Google

| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
