I'm working with someone with real hardware, but I develop using the Hercules emulator.

I may buy one of those myself one day, but it would be dependent on having a business retuning lots of money, not me making large sacrifices.

I believe that is going to happen, but it hasn't happened yet.

Everyone else is using x64 hardware, I'm using a mainframe.

Yep, I look forward to that.

And to all those people who say they only use Linux and won't accept windows software - I will only accept EBCDIC data files.
