Try http://www.snipix.freeserve.co.uk/hercules.htm for an in-progress
370/390 emulator. You can also download a 3330 DASD image ("DASD" = IBM's
term for hard disk - "Direct Access Storage Device") containing a mimimal
OS/360 MFT installation from the FAQ page there.

Documentation? You want documentation? We got documentation.
