Officially called the IBM 7437 VM/SP Personal Workstation, it was a freestanding tower that connected to a MCA card installed in a PS/2 Model 60, 70, or 80. One IBM representative described the 7437 "like a 9370 with a single terminal". bhtooefr @bhtooefr@mastodon.social HERE Also, this thing is part of a whole family of mainframe-on-PC hardware and software that the VM team was largely responsible for. * XT/370 (basically two hacked 68000s with partial S/370 emulation microcode, enough to get CMS running) * AT/370 (ditto) * 7437 VM/SP Technical Workstation (a PS/2 Model 60/80-sized tower, that you cabled to a MCA card in your Model 60/70/80, and gave you a full S/370) * Personal/370 Adapter/A (faster 7437, on a card) IBM, 7437 VM/SP Technical Workstation; User's Guide and Reference , SA23-0351-00 , 1988. 193-131 S/370 CHANNEL EMULATOR/A Provides parallel channel attachment capability via the IBM Block Multiplexer Channel for selected printers and tapes, offload parallel I/O workloads from System/370 host systems to a RISC System/6000 system. 192-156 IBM PS/2 MicroChannel to Mainframe Connection Connects a Micro Channel PS/2 directly to a System/370 or 390, ES/3090, or ES/9000 channel running in block-multiplexer mode. 291-606 Micro Channel 370 Additions (actually the double-wide 9371) 191-035 Micro Channel 370 Enhancements 190-141 Micro Channel 370 190-017 IBM Enterprise System/9370 (ES/9370) Model 14 (9371? but this is IBM) P/370 Complete "The P / 370 is a plug-in for an IBM PS / 2 with 32 bit microchannel.
