The news generated restrained excitement. Intel machines had seriously threatened the mainframe\u2019s existence for decades, so embracing the newly hosted platform wasn\u2019t necessarily attractive. Yet, replacing dozens or hundreds of \u201csquatty little boxes\u201d with virtual machines under z\/VM was an exciting concept and could further aid the resurgence of the mainframe, as has Linux on IBM Z. <\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Mantissa puts Microsoft Windows on a mainframe<\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>March 4, 2009<\/em><\/address>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.infoworld.com\/t\/platforms\/mantissa-puts-microsoft-windows-mainframe-864\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Software that for the first time lets users run native copies of the Windows operating systems on a mainframe will be introduced Friday by datacenter automation vendor Mantissa.<\/a><\/address>\n<h4 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Well, this article was a bit premature, but expresses the goals of z86VM.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h4>\n<blockquote style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\n<h2>Sneaking Through the Skunkworks: A Secret Mainframe\/Thin Client Project<\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">April 30, 2012<\/address>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/enterprisesystemsmedia.com\/article\/sneaking-through-the-skunkworks-a-secret-mainframe-thin-client-project\">Especially noteworthy about the STASH design is that it capitalizes on IBM Z virtualization, security and reliability features, including global mirroring.
