Well, that was an interesting video. How long did it take to get it fully loaded ?
The "service" Celeron board, is it interfaced internally to the rest, or
externally ?

z/OS is a licensed product from IBM (read $$$'s involved). Generally you can't run
anything newer than MVS 3.8j on Hercules. See the Hercules website
(http://www.hercules-390.eu). It has links to other sites where you can get various
OS's and other programs that can be legally run.
Note that there is a "turnkey" system for MVS 3.8j that is set up for Hercules
that has an ISPF-like clone. I have that set up to run on my Mac. I also have the VM/370
"sixpack" installed as well when I want to run VM/370.
The version of z/OS installed on my MP3000 does have ISPF (along with lots of other
program
products) installed.

Does it include ISPF? Using MVS is a bear without
