Looking for Discontinued System/36 EE Redbooks

[ebbhitch]

Hi all,

I figure this is a very long shot, but if you have any of these books lying around and would be willing to part with them for a few bucks, please please let me know! (IBM doesn't have them in any form and I figure that this board is better place to start than ebay)

G580-0912 - IBM System/36 & System/38 Application Design Considerations

SC21-9662 - System Reference for the System/36 Environment

SC21-9663 - Concepts and Programmer's Guide for the System/36 Environment

GG24-3304 - Converting System/36 Environment Applications to Native AS/400

Thank you,
Elizabeth

Hmmm...I have to ask ebbhitch! Are you taking some software off of the S/36 environment on an i machine...??? Or is there really somebody out there still using a S/36 Model D...??? Not for a boat anchor, but actually still in use?

We have an entirely custom built system in the S36 Environment. It's looking very likely that we'll get to start the process of converting software out of RPG II. So the conversion book is most directly relevant, but the other books would (I hope) help me understand the assumptions/mindset of that environment.

I just ran across this thread, and low and behold I have 3 of those books.
How they didn't get thrown out years ago, I'll never know.
You can have them for the cost of shipping.
