What exactly, is an IBM System 36?

  I have the oportunity to aquire an IBM System 36 model 5364 with manuals
and operating disks, all in working condition. My question is, I have never
heard of this system (the 360/370, yes). What can I expect?

  Secondly, from the same source, I can get a Compac Portable I XT with
harddrive and memory upgrade, ethernet 3/comm and AST 5250 emulation (some
mainframe terminal?), again all in working condition, but from what I hear,
it's portable in the term that yes, you can lug the entire setup.

  Third, for anyone that is interested (you pay shipping, plus maybe a few
extra bucks - whatever you think it's worth) the following are also
available:

        10M HD for an IBM 360
        Monroe (possible) "bookkeeping machine"
        Underwood typewriter (manual)
        (unknown) manual adding machine

  I'll be hearing more about this stuff on Monday.
