Linux on non-x86

mymaestro's picture

Kira's article completely missed the biggest non-x86 IRON of all: IBM system z! IBM has been pushing Linux on its biggest mainframe iron for several years now, and the growth in that market has been significant. While most LJ readers may not have a mainframe in their house, it's a platform that draws a lot of attention, and I think should at least have gotten a mention in an article with BIG IRON in the title!

OGG Please!
