HP 3000 Mainframe

Postby Aravindh » Tue Mar 01, 2011 12:40 pm

Hi My Company is now asking me to work in a project for HP3000 . Is it worth moving from IBM mainframes to HP 3000? Please let me know if its a good decision and it would not affect my career.

hard to tell!

we do not know Your organization/company not its development plans

that' something that should be discussed with Your manager!

how would affect Your career not accepting ?
cheers

Note that Hewlett-Packard ceased to support the 3000 series at the end of 2010, although third-party support is available for at least three years. This may affect your decision.
