That thing was a piece of work, wasn't it? I'm glad you survived. The last
one I saw was in the back of a dump truck, on its way to become fill for a
road being built in Iowa.

Paul (and others)

You missed the System/32 :-)

And back in these days between S/34 and S/36, IBM brought up a new system
into the market - called System/23 - OS was Basic Extended (or Enhanced)
and it nearly 'killed' me. Working with it for almost one year =:-(

But well... a funny story - to look back at :-)

IBM had a series of Systems from the Small Systems Division---
System/3, System/34, System/36, and System/38. The next logical step
would have been System/40.

And then Marketing stepped in, and we had System/400.... well,
-APPLICATION- System/400.
