I hope my message did not come across as a flame, but there are a lot of
misconceptions about mainframes (the biggest is that they are dead!). They
are different beasts, certainly. Almost everything about them is in some
way different than the rest of the computing world (micros, minis) - from
benchmarks and architecture to fabrication and networking (compare SNA to
TCP/IP and you will see black and white).
