I pulled our 3290's from the operations area 20 or so years ago when the
operators tried to ipl one of the system and no one noticed that the
OPERATOR console was covered up by the maximized screen of one of the
other 3 sessions. One of the sysprogs noticed the VM ipl screen up on
his/her terminal because that terminal address was an alternate.
I've worked for over 40 years to make systems fool proof but have never
succeeded in making them idiot proof.

They are finally getting rid of old 3174 control units and we wiill lose
our old 3290 local terminal.
We had set up it's big screen with 4 terminal sessions. 19" plasma
screen. A big deal at the time. It provided the anti-green screens. Kind
of orange-y amber. Supposedly better on your eyes. I can't really
remember how long we've had it.=20
