[edit] A TPF application?
Sabre was built on top of TPF, right?
If so, we should probably mention this.

- Some current version of it could conceivably be, but the original predates System 360, of which TPF is apparently a descendant. I believe the original was largely (or exclusively) written in assembler, and in that era probably directly on the metal with no OS as such. PeteVerdon 16:02, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Before TPF it was ACP (Airline Control Program), jointly developed by American Airlines and IBM. TulsaTV 04:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Location of original SABRE systems
I have it on very good authority that the twin 7090s were located in Briarcliff Manor, about 2 miles from here. ;-) I have marked the building, which still stands, in Wikimapia. Search for SABRE. Capek 21:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
