I don't know if this is of interest to the Big Iron IBM guys, but if
there's any interest from folks not in the Seattle Area, I'm happy to
help faciliate.

That is a 62PC I don't know of any 370 systems that used them, I think
the closed they came to a mainframe was they where used in the 8130 and
8140 systems. There was also at least one in every S/38, in the later
days of S/38 it was usually only one with the system microcode on it and
it was run isolated from the rest of the disk storage because of their
tendency to die suddenly. I believe that 62PCs where also used in S/34
and Series/1.
