The question is not how complete a set of VM the machine runs, but that
is runs VM at all*.  Your normal desktop computer doesn't run a full
UNIX system either... yet.  This discussion was about the next great OS
on minicomputers.  If a VM subset runs now on XT/370, you can bet there
will be a hardware/software solution soon that runs a more complete set.
