Indeed they must be. I've been looking for /40 ALDs for some time but haven't
struck any. I wonder if they're
scarce becase the 40 was a AFAIK a british-developed 360. My dad was posted to Hursley to
learn the /40 in 64-65.
The only Model 40 docs I have left are less than a dozen pages of 'IBM SYSTEM/360
MODEL 40 DEVELOPMENT MANUAL'
The microcode was in the ALD drawings, and might
even be in bitsavers archive, if they have the right manual.
360 CPU ALDs are extremely difficult to find.
If the 65 set could be scanned, I'd be happy to upload them to bitsavers. from March 1965 from 'IBM BRITISH
LABORATORIES'.
Why do I have these? Dad used to bring home Model 40 binders in
the late 60s so my brother and I had a good
supply of paper to scribble and paint on as kids. All the pages I have left have drawings
on the blank side
and that was why my parents kept them :)
