... trivia: after FS implodes, head of POK was convincing corporate to kill the VM370 product, shutdown the development group and transfer all the people to POK for (370/XA) MVS/XA ... possibly because of how bad it made POK's favorite son operation system, MVS, look; ... which 16-CPU SMP would have just made MVS look worse. Endicott (370 mid-range) eventually manages to acquire the VM370 product mission ... but has to recreate a development group from scratch. -- virtualization experience starting Jan1968, online at home since Mar1970
