????來自CNET的消息，IBM上周三宣布，在未來的五年，IBM將花費一億美元，用來使它的主機更容易使用。
????“IBM will spend $100m over the next five years to make its mainframe line easier to administer and programme, the company said on Wednesday,” writes Stephen Shankland in CNET News.
??? IBM生產(chǎn)了十多年的主機System z運行的z/OS操作系統(tǒng)，跟目前運行Unix，Windows和Linux的主流機型逐漸形成差距。IBM希望通過更現(xiàn)代的用戶界面，可視化軟件工具等來改變這一狀況。
????“IBM’s decades-old mainframe lineage, called System z and running the z/OS operating system, has grown increasingly distant from mainstream computing with the rise of computers running Unix, Windows and Linux. Big Blue is trying to change that with a modern user interface, visual programming tools and other developments, the company said.”
