Bill -- I have most of the System/36 stuff... except the languages, sigh. You wouldn't happen to have any of the SSP on 5.25" would you. I have a 5363 I've never successfully IPL'd . And while I'm turning your request for assistance on its head... you wouldn't happen to want a 5360 would you? I have one in need of a good home. I don't even have a garage so I'm paying storage for the beast (2 tape drives, 2 printers, expanded main cabinet with additional disk platters and the magazine version of the 8" floppy). Maybe I can be more helpful if you have other S/36 needs in future. I have a lot of the books and even a few already scanned to PDF. While I'm begging, I don't suppose anyone out there has the Office suite for S/36, or any interesting applications? Or maybe someone wants to be free of a 5364 (a little easier on the electric bills than the 63, 62 or 60). My systems only have SSP, and I have a perverse desire to get some use out of them. -Colin ceby2(a)csc.com Senior Consultant, National Performance Engineeering Practice CSC Consulting.
