Very comforting to know I'm not the senior member of the z/VM Old Farts
League :-)
Back on track - I spent 6 months in the late 70's coding a simple data
collection screen/database update in 370 assembler. Found REXX in the 80's
and did the same thing in 2 hours and never looked back (slow shmoe - use
them fancy speedy processors to hide the overhead). I do miss juggling
bits sometimes though..

This is my 35th year. I wrote code (for my 6 month cert) on a 360/20 and
my first job was operating a Honeywell 7000 (I think that was the series
but I'm sure it was a honeywell ).
It had 3 sets of 3 lights that when all lit up(777) was good eoj.
Anything else you had to look up the error code , fix the job and rerun.

Dude - you're old! :-)
I'm into my 30th year using VM so I'm not too far behind you, gramps.
