Are you sure? It looks like the Tax Commission room in the basement of
the capital building. I am sure they had a 360-25 running DOS. We had a
360-50 (my roommates machine x2) and ran both OS/MFT and 1401 emulation
on it.

It is a 360/20. the 360/25 was larger and the "upgrade" from there was to a
360/mini-mod-22. the 360/25 would run 1401 emulation.

That should be 360-50 not 36-50. :)

I recognize it. That is a 360-25 with a MFCU at one end and a printer at
the other. Back in the early 70's the Oklahoma Tax Commission had one
that ran an operating system called DOS that later grew up to be z/VSE.
My roommate was the systems programmer/operator on it. I was working at
OU at the time we had a 36-50 that ran OS/MFT which is now called z/OS.

On page 50 of the Nov. 2006 issue of SC Magazine is a picture that has
been labeled a System/360.
I've seen a lot of S/360 pictures and have even been in the presence
of one, but I don't ever recall
a S/360 looking like this. Obviously, there is a printer and a card
reader in the picture. Is the unit
in the middle the controller for these devices? But on second look, I
can see the Emergency Pull and
the dials for setting addresses (IPL , etc.).
So, what S/360 is this unit used on?
Thanks,
