"I am 99.9% positive there were no water cooled S360 or S370 processors."

"The central processing complex of the System/360 Model 195 is made up of
seven stand-alone units: a CPU, three CPU power supply units, a power
distribution unit, a coolant distribution unit, and a system console
(Figure 2). (A motor- generator set must be ordered separately and may be
located in a remote area.)"
