RE: IBM obsoleting mainframe hardware

My 10 year old Multiprise 2003 model 106 is running OS/390 2.10 just
fine and I have yet to find any business justification for changing it.

I have three customer running OS/390 1.3 on a 2003/103 and their only
concern is the political hyperventilation that occurs whenever IBM
announces another piece of hardware is going out of support.

Ten years? That's a long time. Ten years ago the G4 was announced.

How many people have actually ever kept a mainframe for ten years, even
with upgrades?
