'Guide' - Slide 2

I read that sendmail.com uses an S/390 to do their development
for their advanced message server... At what point does an
S/390 become cost effective over doing individual machines?

Disk Storage: Does the S/390 VM provide SCSI disk, IDE
disk, or a custom disk driver?

Portability: Is/Are the port(s) to VM easier without that pesky
'PC' architecture? (VGA consoles, MMX/MMX-like extensions,
etc.)

Speaking of consoles... How does the console work?
