Greetings to all the residents of this dimension!

I come from a dimension where our version of Gartner has spent the last
20+ years saying the mainframe is obsolete, in urgent need of replacement,
and dismissing anyone staying with this technology as dinosaurs, etc, etc.

I see that in this dimension Gartner actively recommends some people
consider moving from VMware to the mainframe in order to run their
Linux VMs:

This is an interesting dimension to live in...

Simon.

PS: Sorry :-), but, seriously, what the hell ??? Gartner saying this ???
It sounds like a plot line that even the Asylum would reject (probably). :-)
(Some Asylum movies are actually quite good, but they are not to be taken
seriously.)
