I'm not sure on that one but the two I was thinking
about was Farmers Insurance and Allstate, but most
of the "majors" all had a bunch. I think every
State Farm agent in the country as well as AllState
had a S/36. I had forgotten about Farm Bureau.
That was a BUNCH of 5362's installed.

That entire industry had/has a LOT of pull with IBM on
when, and what was going to happen in midrange stuff.

One commercial loan company who's name I can not
remember had over 3,000.
