Mary, If I am not mistaken, I believe that QWEST and LVLT plan to do these exact things as an adjunct to their "pipes" bis. WEB hosting,servers, data centers, etc.

Mary,

Can servers do
now pretty much anything that a mainframe can do?


No. Same reasons as in post #54730, about a year ago today. Servers are innovating to get closer but S390 is not standing still either. In IBM's earnings report this week, it came out that they were up 80% in terms of MIPS, 1Q99 vs. 1Q98.
