Re: How do I tell that I am working with a MC3277 or TN3270? How do I install TSO?

Hello Mike, I appreciate the good-natured ribbing, at least I hope it is. But if I may say this, if I ask what is dumb questions to you, that is because I am dumb and I want to learn...I am a newbie with this software and gradually realizing there's more to it than just installing Hercules emulator and the Turn-key and much much more...even "baby big-iron" is very much like "grown-up big-iron" - it is still nothing to sneeze at in terms of putting it all together in one's mind. But I am getting there...

Anytime and everytime, I appreciate your productive recommendation and pointers to resolve my turn-key problem.
