It is too bad
that the ultra-conservative mainframe types will not
loosen their ties enough to get blood to their brains and listen to
the Unix people, and that the cocky Unix people will not shut up about
how great Unix is and listen to what mainframe people have to offer.
Oil and water.
It doesn't help much either that there are no --- absolutely zero,
null, nothing, nada --- remote access "z" systems. Only "i" (an
AS/400), that I can think of, but that's not a true mainframe;
quasi-mainframe at best?
"Mini".
