Pat, With very little or no changes, many of the programs written for > the System/3 could be run on the current box. Assuming you had the source and could recompile them. Constrasted with programs compiled 25 years ago for the S/38, where unless you intentionally removed observability, will not only run on current RISC hardware, but does so natively without having to go through a thunking layer or 16-bit subsystem or anything. What is amazing on the 38/400 is how the hardware has changed and even compiled programs continue to take advantage of the hardware advances. Doug
