What we mean to do is to provide a CLEAR path forward for those most budgetarily and technologically stuck organizations, what we call "CCM's", commonly known as

IBM mainframes running COBOL, CICS, zOS and the "usual suspects".

 

If you're part of the 25-40% of the contributors to Mr. Palmisano's $100B 2008 results, we are certain he and his "little team" [398,000 or so...] are most grateful for your continued indulgence.

If you're convinced that $10M a year for a mainframe complex is the way to do transactions, we hope your budgets don't run dry. If you think about all of those "Social Sites" that service millions of "hits" per day and have never thought about anything other than Linux or Windows, perhaps we could help.

 

We are a management group that knows all of the dollars, the bytes, the procedures, and the reasons why you should "get serious" about your future. It's why we're here.

While we hate to say it, we have a fairly revolutionary view of a simple transition: take those COBOL apps running on big boxes and move them to small boxes that will benefit you immediately and from here on out. Ours is the most direct, riskless, fast path to that transition, and we provide more choices for you along the way than any of our "competitors".
