They shoot mainframes, don’t they?

What does two and two make? The answer: a myth.
It’s a joke, but not a very funny one, for IBM’s System z team: when they talk to customers who refuse to consider a move to a mainframe environment, two and two is their objection: “it will take me two years to do it, and I’m going to spend two million dollars in the struggle,” they say.
If this were true, you’d have to be crazy, a masochist or have a really bad data centre to embark on a plan like this.
