Linux controls IBM mainframes
,----[ Quote ]
| Consolidation for everyone is IBM's stated
| reason for releasing a Linux version of its
| System z mainframe. The new Enterprise Linux
| Server (ELS) is a stand-alone system
| specifically designed for Linux environments.
| According to IBM, the financial savings can be
| up to 80 per cent. Furthermore, a "save-as-you-
| grow" pricing model is intended to facilitate
| investment decisions by allowing customers to
| gradually purchase resources at considerably
| lower prices than that of a complete system.
