Nobody uses mainframes anymore (except banks). They have emulators however, that emulate a mainframe on windows.

Currently I work for a major insurance company which has multiple data centers with many, many mainframes... Think ~60K square feet worth of mainframes per data center. Mainframes are pervasive and aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
