Might as well be, it’s not really IBM anymore.
They have a stranglehold on enterprise computing after they ate redhat, and they still make insane mainframes, they’ve just left the consumer world (which makes sense given their name i guess)
I wouldn’t go that far, there’s been a mass exodus from Redhat and they’re hardly the only game in town when it comes to mainframes. You do have a point though.
Mainframes are still the shit in the world of financial transactions.
