Gil, How does a site not having space to "store tens of gigabytes" of data make IBM technically backward? There are plenty of legitimate concerns about IBM where this case can be made but not here. We're a small mainframe site yet we have VSAM datasets ranging upwards of 300 GB. Large sites have Db2 tables in the multiple terabyte range. My Windows counterparts have disk arrays that physically dwarf my DS array. I would be surprised to find many (if any) medium to large sites entrusting their corporate data to consumer grade disks that cost fifty to a couple hundred bucks and fit in a shirt pocket.

This discussion focuses on lack of space to store tens of gigabytes. Outside the z world that comes for a few hours' pah and fits in a shirt pocket.
