John, Tony >>>MVS is also FAR more reliable than any Microsoft driven Intel based system. <<< I know you guys are MVS internals type - but we need to know more about the MVS world from a CIO perspective. You guys have to take us (Peck, Kurlak, myself and others) to school vis a vis Information Technology. For starters, I would like to know what are these Fortune 100 (500)companies using S390 for. What kinds of applications are being run on these machine (and later on I would like to get on to my point that most of these can be migrated on to a IA32 or IA64 machine - but that's for later). Thanks, Mary PS - There is nothing you guys can tell us about this world that we wouldn't be interested in - so whenever you guys get a chance tell us as much as you can.
