1980 - got into IBM systems programming. First job - a 360/65 and 360/75J running MVT. Later that year we installed to 4341s running VM and had MVT as a guest, thanks to the Michigan mods tape for the clock and some JES programming to print jobs with MVT headers. Eventually we put in VS/1 7.0C entirely installed and maintained from VM.
And I loved it all! Daniel McLaughlin Z-Series Systems Programmer Information & Communications Technology Crawford & Company 4680 N.
