I'm wondering who may be using the IBM PC/XT in true XT/370 mode. I'm not
thinking of the plain 3277 terminal emulation, but of running VM/PC
for program development and application purposes, offloading
your IBM mainframes and doing the work on the PC instead.

From what I've read in the papers on this subject, XT/370 seems to be a
conceptionally interesting idea. But how does the real world look like?

Any experiences, any comments from the net? You may flame!

Please respond by e-mail; I'll summarize to the net if there is enough
interest.
