Also there is a Buroughs' MainFrame based on the

Moto corrected a bug in the second year and it turnes out the Buroughs
had depended on that bug. Now I know it was a mainframe as it ran a
VM and CMS OS on it. But it is based on a micro chip. Also aren't the
current IBM Main Frames based on a Power chip? I suspect that there is
a lot of support chips (and probably multi processor).
It was a micro that ran VM and CMS.
