Wow, nothing like being exact, except my memory...... lol So I started on a Honeywell L66 with GCOS in 1983, Then my company bought a IBM 3090-150, in 1986. So yes it could have been MVS/SP 1.3.6

We were MVS/SP 1.3.6, which was installed in 1987. While is has been a very long time, I remember going from MVS/SP 1.3.6 to XA 2.2.
