The CPU in the XBOX is an IBM PowerPC.
I heard on the radio today that the next generation of the
XBOX will be
named XBOX 360. Maybe it will run PCP or MFT? How about

possibilities are endless.
Maybe they can use it to replace the IBM 360 CPUs on the Space
Shuttle.

available for OS/VS1.
Anyone care to

When I worked at JSC way back, the CPUs were IBM AP-101s from, I think,

I don't recall if MFT ever had TSO. I know it had CRJE. Anyone care to
guess what CRJE stands for?? ;-O
