Can someone tell me what would be a cheap machine where software for
IBM mainframes could be developed? Is it possible to buy something
like a workstation, and develop business software which will run
in mainframes. I wonder what the software developers do? Do they use
the original machine which is very expensive.

please reply by email or post.

thanks
