I saw that and almost posted it here.

IBM has a registered trademark on "z Systems" and on "System z." If I were an 
IBM trademark lawyer I would be taking a very long, hard look at HP Z.

Subject: Accept nothing less than Z

Just got an email from HP touting their new 'Z' box using the subject above.

Catch phrases include:
"Make the move to Z"
"The switch to Z is happening"

I guess if you can't compete with the mainframe, you can just start calling 
yourself by the same name. :-)
