Great... the OS will be desupported by year end, and they release the
download... 

I wonder if it will work on Z/OS

Speaking of Linux, does oracle support Linux/390? One 3090 600J can be 
bought very cheap these days and
would look very nice in the living room, especially a little larger one. 
You can even Halon fire extinguisher
and Liebert generator to power it up in case of power failure. With Linux, 
it would be a perfect engine for
surfing the web and playing GNOME Tetris.
