Seeing how banks and other industries are throwing money at the wall to migrate away from the mainframe, and seeing how money speaks louder than words, I’m doubting that last statement.
Also, you don’t buy mainframes, you rent mainframe CPU cycles. Or actually, you will pay for the rolling window 4 hour peak of CPU utilization.
IBM will gladly ship out the fridge sized box that holds those CPU’s to your data center for free, as soon as you turn it on their cash starts coming in.
