Technical Details
First delivered in 1965, System/360 was a family of mainframe computers. System/360 models were compatible with one another, meaning that customers could start off with smaller system and move up to a larger one, if need be, without needing to reprogram software. They were used in a wide variety of applications and influenced hardware design for some time to come. Dozens of OSes were written for the system.
In spite of the System/360's popularity, no intact System/360s exist today.
