Works, but I found a non-archived copy. Guy Harris (talk) 06:51, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox formatting

Figured I should add a note to apologise for my rather ugly fix for the way the infobox in the architecture section is rendering the surrounding text. Or mainly so that somebody who's less clueless about infobox markup than I am might do it properly. :D --Vometia (talk) 10:45, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cutoff point for S/370 compatible?

At what point should new or specialty processors no longer be listed in #Models sorted by date introduced (table)? In particular, should the box include:

  • -155 II
  • -1165 II
  • 9472
  • P/370 card for PC
  • R/370 card for RS/6000
  • P/390 card for PC
  • R/390 card for RS/6000
  • Multiprise 2000
  • Multiprise 3000
  • 9672

Architecture details

If "IBM documentation numbers the bits in reverse order to that shown above", why not reverse the position numbers to agree with the documentation? Peter Flass (talk) 17:25, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
