The chips (SLTs) are not too bad. They can still be found on scrap IBM
boards. Interfacing to them is no big deal - the characteristics are
known.
With all the talk of IBM systems and docs today, I remembered I had some
IBM books put away. I found four 1.5" binders worth, and they all appear
to be related to S/370 operations and software. If there is any interest
in these, I'd be willing to scan them if I can find a place to host the
resulting files.
