Actually, VSE/ESA version 1, like VM/ESA 370

I never did understand why they came up with that oxymoron of
a name for VM/SP.? What DID it have??
Well as it was not VM/SP it had a new licence, so extracted money
from those still on 370-only machines.
It had the bi-modal capable CMS so it broke quite a few
applications, but it didn't actually work in ESA mode.
It got rid of HPO so forcing folks with bigger machines to
upgrade to ESA
Made SP6 look reasonable?
Did it even include VM/SP HPO?
I think it had 4k key support so ran on machines with only this
feature, but I can't see the announcement letter to check.
