CIOs have a bias to be wimps. It's easier to kick the can down the road.

I work with alot of orgs that have these things, both directly and from a association/conference perspective - it's starting to change because the new CIOs didn't grow up with mainframes, and are finding themselves with no alternatives other than expensive and increasingly ineffective contracts to operate these things. 1990 was 35 years ago, the old guys are dead - the can has been kicked off a cliff.
