IBM 370
System/370
<hardware, IBM> (S/370) An IBM mainframe computer
introduced in 1970 as a successor to the IBM 360.
Enhancements included the ability to support virtual memory
and improved main storage. Two models were available
initially: 165 and 155, with cycle times of 80 and 115
nanoseconds.

Since the rise of the personal computer in the 1980s, IBM and other vendors have created PC-based IBM-compatible mainframes which are compatible with the larger IBM mainframe computers. For a period of time PC-based mainframe-compatible systems had a lower price and did not require as much electricity or floor space.

IBM System/370
The IBM System/370 (S/370) is a model range of IBM mainframe computers announced on June 30, 1970, as the successors to the System/360 family. The series mostly maintains backward compatibility with the S/360, allowing an easy migration path for customers; this, plus improved performance, were the dominant themes of the product announcement. In September 1990, the System/370 line was replaced with the System/390.
