Very cool. Funny, though... I remember first logging onto TSO on what I thought was a 3082 (although I didn't know what even DASD was at the time). Then, when I finally got my hands on a mainframe in MCO, it was a 3084. This slideshow shows a 3083, which I don't have any recollection of. Looks like a 3084, from what I can remember, though.
