Well, actually, IBM released the first 370 in 1968, only
they didn't want to tell
I remember the day! I was in school then, and had an older friend who
worked at IBM. He had previously told me that they had bought the
entire (416)360 exchange for their offices, and I asked him if they were
all going to change to 370 now!
