   I have not played with mainframes since the mid 80s when my first job was a   
   backup operator.

   It is amazing what emulators can do.  I run MBSE under Slackware Linux and   
   thanks to DOSemu, I have several DOS doors and even participate using   
   InterLORD in an IBBS league, all under Linux and DOSemu.   
      
   I think I have several emulators tucked away in my filebase somewhere...
