MTS worked quite well. and was used at several other installations, including Wayne Stste University in Detroit, where I worked. I never worked with MTS, but they continued to run it intil the mid to late 1990s. It was the first of the mainframe operating systems that they dumped. For a time, we ran MVT under MTS on the duplex 360/67.
