Advanced/36

I actually have code running in this! (Interrupt and
exception handling code.)

The Advanced/36 uses an early version of SLIC (System
Licensed Internal Code) used on the RISC based AS/400s sold
today.

Back when the RISC based AS/400s were being developed,
somebody wrote an emulator for the System/36. We could
easily emulate a System/36 with the new hardware, and give a
lot of businesses a few more years with their software
investment. Eventually we wanted them to be running on the
AS/400 natively though. :-)
