   That's a weird definition. Software requires hardware   
   to run on. It's true that there are more layers than   
   just microcode like IBM use. And thus slower. So?   
   That doesn't stop them from being a mainframe   
   vendor.

   None of it is vaporware. You can download it all already,   
   and it has been available for literally decades.
