What size disks does the IBM S/36 use and is this the same machine you
refer to as a "System 36"?? I may have a whole batch of books and disks
coming to me in the very near future and am curious if they may be of
any value to anyone out in "pooter land".

That's what the person told me they were, 5 1/4" disks. I should know
more of what there is tommorow and post it for those interested.

The 5360 and 5362 use 8". The 5363 and 5364 (PC/36) use 5.25".
If you get any development or unusual stuff I'd sure like a crack at it so
I could at least archive it to CD.

I'm told that they are 5.25" but no description of what there is other than
(and I quote) "a shit load of disks". I'll get them probably tommorow and
dig
into them.
