Anyone know where I can get my hands on an emulator of

Always wanted to meet one, and I'm curious. (Taking a shortish rest from
working on the '10. I'm into paging and such now and it's giving me fits.)
Failing that, anyone know where to get documentation so I can hack one up
after I'm done fighting with E10?
Altavista search turns up junk matches (resumes and such) and a couple
emulators that have disappeared.
Try http://www.snipix.freeserve.co.uk/hercules.htm for an in-progress
370/390 emulator. You can also download a 3330 DASD image ("DASD" = IBM's
term for hard disk - "Direct Access Storage Device") containing a mimimal
OS/360 MFT installation from the FAQ page there.
Documentation? You want documentation? We got documentation.
