>>Meet you underneath the Empire State Building in 2001 and we will compare notes and see who is going to be right.<<

You'll be no closer to resolution then, either. Case in point: it used to be that vendors measured mainframe sales in terms of revenue (makes sense, huh?). Now, as you've been told, vendors measure mainframe sales in terms of MIPS (while playing down the fact that at IBM, for example, mainframe revenue was down quarter-versus-quarter).

In 2001, you'll probably have folks measuring mainframe sales in terms of tonnage, or some other metric that continues to allow mainframes to see some type (any type!) of growth.
