Note that I have rescued at some point in the past an IBM patent (it was
the UK version) of a computer with microcode, and maybe Virtual Memory
too. Although they didn't call it that I think. After reading, it
described something remarkably like the S/360. It lists the full
microcode and has extensive hardware schematics.

The patent number is 1,108,800. Inventors: Gene Myron Amdahl et al.
USA patent application number 357372, 6 April 1964. The issued patent
number is US003400371.

-Olaf.
