Hey Michael.  Check out the 3560 software config guide under spanning-tree.
Looks like according to the latest docs PVST+ and RPVST+ support 128 and MST
supports 65 instances.  Frankly this surprised me, because all the books
usually say MST supports 64 instances. Maybe 64+instance 0 ?  Anyways, that
is where it is at.

" In PVST+ or rapid-PVST+ mode, the switch supports up to 128 spanning-tree
instances.

In MSTP mode, the switch supports up to 65 MST instances. The number of
VLANs that can be mapped to a particular MST instance is unlimited."
