It is funny how somebody shows/tells/represents the facts.

See this question in the fact/pdf Rohit shared:
Quote:
How many more years do you think your organization will continue to rely on mainframe applications?

Quote:
Fewer than 5 Years or don't know - 13%
5 - 10 Years - 55%
10 - 20 Years - 30%
More than 20 Years - 2%


And then they go on to say that
Quote:
87% of enterprises that currently use mainframes expect to continue doing so for more than five years.

Using the same facts one could also say that:
Quote:
68% of enterprises that currently use mainframes expect to get rid of it in next 10 Years

OR (to get someone more worried)
Quote:
98% of enterprises that currently use mainframes expect to get rid of it in next 20 Years

It's the way somebody wants you to look at the facts.

I don't think it's worth mentioning that the facts are printed by a particular organization (I am not blaming them but may be they are only printing what interests them and that's fair).
