sorry for the large amount of question, I am on a tighter-than-usual schedule
I cannot translate this "link" sentence as it is, could someone rephrase it to help me understand its purpose?
And as a driver for new customer growth on the platform, Linux is now responsible for over 200 first-time mainframe customers since zSeries began shipping in December 2000.
***The news here -- as well as momentum -- is very clear. ***
In its highly competitive server band, zSeries is gaining significant market share, and from a new workload standpoint, the percentage of zSeries capacity supporting new workloads continues to increase.
thanks!
