mr k. You don't need to be old to know about IBM stuff, just "lucky" enough to work for someone with a pile of mainframes. I was such a lucky person out of college to land a job at McDonnell Douglas with the largest IBM shop on the face of the earth. It also helped that as a programmer I had free access to my very own copy of every manual I could have ever wanted. IBM if one thing only, they had very extensive documentation. I was a rebel and wrote my code in IBM pascal, PL/1 and rexx, instead of cobol or fortran. All in all it was really nice to be in such a large consistent environment, actually liked PROFS, long before office calendar systems and email even existed on PC's.
