Thanks Steve This was a machine that could not keep up with the times (perhaps), not like the open systems we see today.
Love to see one and give it a big hug and lots of kisses ! Thanks & Best Regards. Umamaheshwar Iyer | Project Manager | Tech Mahindra Hinjwadi, Pune - 411 004, INDIA Ph.

After the demise of this wonderful machine, I got a chance working on the Mainframe, which was quite tough when working from a user friendly system to a non-user friendly system. Almost 25 Years now! Any idea if WANG is still lurking within the computing world? <SNIPPAGE> Dr. Wang is no longer with us. And the company, WANG, was taken over by another company and they basically dropped the hardware. Some years ago I was bidding on migrating WANG/VS based entities to z/OS. I understand that there are still a few holdouts in the Government arena.
