there was big explosion in the mid-range market with 43xx machines ...
which MVS didn't fit well into.

I resemble that remark. :-)
At Clearing, we ran MVS very nicely on three 4341 Model Group 2 boxen
for three years and it ran very nicely. Nowdays, my pocket calculator
probably has more raw compute power but the fact remains that we were
very happy with the equipment, until our workload grew beyond their
capacity to process it. IIRC, the DASD farm was a mix of 3330-11's and
3350's. Talk about ancient.....
