	I have recently been asked to look into the possibility of moving
	some data from an IBM 8150 to a Stratus machine.  Unfortunately
	I have almost no background in IBM systems, transaction based
	systems, or 3270 protocols.  I guess that's what made me the logical 
	choice when it came time to assign tasks ;-) !

	Does anyone out there have some recommendations as far as a good
	place to look for information regarding the 8150 and/or 3270 ?
	Time is a little critical, so a good overview or reference work
	would be better than an introduction, but any and all recommendations
	would be a big help.

	Also, as long as I'm picking your (vastly superior ;-)) brains, has
	anyone out there had any experience with the 3270 emulation card
	for the PC marketed by INS ?
	
	Thanks in advance
