I'm trying to have the title of the last PROFS system still running.  We 
bought (OTC) the PROFS product in its  last version.  It is still running 
on z/VM 5.1 at (to be upgraded sometime this year).  The "levelid" command 
from a PROFS "Main Menu" returns:
OFSIDE001I PROFS Version 2 (5664-309) Level: 2.3.2 - Release 2, 
Modification 3, PTF 2.  

That same PROFS Main Menu also shows a calendar with:
   1908     MARCH     1908 
  S   M   T   W   T   F   S 
  1   2   3   4   5   6   7 
  8   9  10  11  12  13  14 
 15  16  17  18  19  20  21 
 22  23  24  25  26  27  28 
 29  30  31 
           Day of Year: 073  

1908?  What do you want for "free" (IIRC, PROFS support ended in June 
1994).  Sort of an IBM version of "Back To the Future"!  :-)

But everything else still works and it's handy to review old mail logs. 
Sometime after Y2K we even installed Victor Strasser "OFSMIME" package so 
that it handles attachments from our main e-mail system: Lotus Notes.

That is a historical reference. PROFS (O/V) has not been an issue in
this shop for about 10 years.
