That would have been pretty useful during my college years. Most of the classes were on a IBM 370. I still have my assembly book and the assembly banana book.

That would have been pretty useful during my college years. Most of the classes were on a IBM 370. I still have my assembly book and the assembly banana book. XEDIT was an interesting editor.
It was an interesting era since pretty much everyone trudged over to the computer lab to use the terminals to do their assignments. It does generate a bit of community in groups of people going through their degree at the same time.
It would have been interesting if IBM had got Motorola to second source the chip and used it instead of the 8088. Would have been a very different PC era.
