IBM is stating that mainframes are good for consolidation: http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/17998

I'm a big fan of using consolidation to save on servers, increase server utilisation (which has a huge effect on power savings), and to simplify management -- but you can save even more money by doing this on Sun servers and using OpenSolaris.
