Are there any working IBM 360 systems today? (or even emulators?)
Any on display anywhere?

Read an article in the local paper, Ottawa Citizen, about the
IBM 360 turning 40 today. Interesting read, they claim that
in today's dollars, the total effort cost something like
$30 BILLION :-)

The picture in the paper was interesting, because the front panel
is the exact same one that I have in the basement...

Cheers,
