		The life of the FAA 9020 system extended well beyond the life span of other IBM 360 systems, which were discontinued in 1977.
		The 360 design influenced greatly later computers: the RCA Spectra, XDS, Ryad, and the Univac 9000, and to a lesser extent the DEC VAX and Intel architectures.
		IBM made hundreds of millions of SLT modules over the lifespan of this technology.

		IBM made the first commercial use of microcode technology to accomplish this compatibility, employing it in all but the largest models.
		CP/CMS was developed outside the IBM mainstream at IBM's Cambridge Scientific Center, in cooperation with MIT researchers; it eventually won wide acceptance, and led to the development of IBM's VM/CMS and today's z/VM.
		The IBM 1130 was a low cost computer system based on the System/360 SLT approach, which was sometimes used as a remote job entry system for the System/360.

	PRESS RELEASE Report: IBM Declared Global Leader on TOP500 List of Supercomputers
		IBM is the leader in global supercomputing with 49.39 percent of the total processing power, which is 28.4 percent more, or 2.35 times as much, processing power than its closest rival.
		IBM and its partners are exploring a growing list of high performance computing (HPC) applications including life sciences, financial modeling, hydrodynamics, quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, astronomy and space research and climate modeling for eServer Blue Gene.
		Blue Gene is an IBM supercomputing project dedicated to building a new family of supercomputers optimized for bandwidth, scalability and the ability to handle large amounts of data while consuming a fraction of the power and floor space required by today's fastest systems.

		IBM made a big event of the System/360 announcement on April 7, 1964, holding press conferences in 62 U.S. cities and fourteen foreign countries.
		The 360 was intended to replace IBM's second-generation business and scientific computers, but it was not compatible with any of them, forcing customers to run emulators or convert their applications.
		IBM received 2,000 orders within the first five months after the 360 announcement and maintained its market share at about two-thirds of the mainframe computing market.

	Xbox 360 FAQs - Xbox
		The Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system was designed by Microsoft, in conjunction with two of the most innovative design firms in the world: San Francisco-based Astro Studios and Osaka, Japan-based Hers Experimental Design Laboratory Inc; which worked together to craft a sleek, stylish system that conveys the very essence of the Xbox 360.
		The fact that the Xbox 360 has USB ports doesn’t guarantee we’ll be able to plug in PC input devices, like a mouse and keyboard, plus this time all Xbox 360 peripherals must be approved at a silicon level in order to work for the console.
		Regarding video codecs, the Xbox 360 will be play anything that a Windows Media Center PC streams to it, so the question of the codec applies more to the PC, not the Xbox 360 which simply act as an extender.

	IBM History and Stanford
		At the time of the appearance of the IBM 360-series most computing was centralized and operated by the Stanford Computation Center, which consisted of three facilities: a `Campus facility', an operation at SLAC, with eventually an IBM 360-91, and a system, ACME, running a 360-50 dedicated to real-time computing in the Medical School.
		At IBM the successor for the 7700 was the IBM 1800, and one of those mchines was in use in the medical school ACME project in 1967.
		IBM 360-50 system as its main computer, an IBM 1800 for data acquisition and distribution, IBM 2701 interfaces for various laboratory computers, and a home-built network for terminals in the laboratories.

	IBM 360 - Definition
		The 360 architecture was based on an 8-bit byte, 16 general purpose registers, 24-bit addressing, and a PSW (Program Status Word) including a location counter.
		Gene Amdahl, then an IBM employee, is generally acknowledged as the 360's chief architect.
		The 360's predecessors were the smaller IBM 1401 and the large IBM 7090 series.

	IBM - EBCDIC and the P-bit
		IBM was going to announce the 360 in 1964 April as an ASCII machine, but their printers and punches were not ready to handle ASCII, and IBM just HAD to announce.
		However, IBM (present-day note: Read "Learson") made the decision not to take that action, and from this time the worldwide position of IBM hardened to "any code as long as it is ours".
		That was three years before the 360 was announced, and IBM was totally aware of it, especially because they had already decided on the 8-bit byte.
