The IBM zPDT emulates one or more System z processors, the CPUs used in IBM Z mainframes, on a PC running Linux. This provides a small System z instance capable of running currently supported operating systems, with emulation of selected System z I/O devices and control units. IBM warns that zPDT is strictly intended as a development, demonstration, and learning platform and not designed as a production system, should one be tempted to do this, particularly as x86 boxes lack the famous reliability and availability of Big Blue's big iron.

Besides the flavor, these wacky commercials are perhaps what former fans remember the most.
