Dave,

If the licensing for the vm product is the same as for the mvs product,
and I think it is, tsm 3.7 can be much cheaper than ADSM 3.1.*.  Since
there is a per client monthly charge,  with enough clients the client
charge becomes more important than the fixed server charge.  We have 1400+
clients and because the tsm 37 monthly charge per client is $2 instead  of
$5 for ADSM 3.1.*, our total *sm lincense was cut in half by going to 3.7
even though I have not yet upgraded the server to 3.7.  We have a year to
do that after licensing 3.7.
