It probably was a 3081 - I may have a memory leak. Tek had seven business data centers and one engineering data center at the time. Engineering was running a 3083 with VM/HPO5 for circuit simulation, and circuit board design system for a time. The disclaimer, "...if I remember" is becoming more and more relevant. Sorry for the misinformation.

Worst thing was > the 168 shared DASD with a 3033 - the 168 always came in second. actually the 168 had "faster" channels than 3033. after the demise of future system effort, there was a mad rush to get stuff into the 370 software&product pipeline. ... 303x was stop-gap while they got 3081 & 370-xa moving. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
