| Video Discription | Computer History: IBM Mainframe 360: The following presentation we have assembled focuses on the origin of the IBM System/360 mainframe computer family, IBM’s most successful computer product line and one of the most influential computer system architectures of the twentieth century. IBM invested $5 billion in resources to develop the new architecture and multiple system models. Announced on April 7, 1964, it revolutionized mainframe processing and secured IBM’s position as the large systems leader for decades to come. Vintage films and photos describing various models of the 360 in different environments are courtesy of IBM Archives, NASA Archives and other sources. Compiled by the Computer History Archives Project (CHAP), editing, Mark Greenia. Run time: 15 minutes. Background information: The System/360 is considered a Third Generation Computer. The System/360 architecture included sixteen 32–bit registers. The 360 family was designed to meet the needs of business, scientific and government computing customers. The 360 became highly influential and a vital part of computing technology used by NASA's various Apollo missions, educational institutions, research centers, airline reservation systems, and much more. The system cost varied greatly depending on model and configuration. A complete lower end system was about $2 million (equivalent to $18.2 million in 2022). The largest model (195) was priced at $7 to $12 million. ($64 million to $109.5 million in 2022). Monthly system rentals started at about $20,000 ($182,000 in 2022). The most popular model sold was the Model 65. It was replaced by the IBM System/370 family, but many remained in service for years.
