hi everyone,
I've just subbed to this list to try and find out some information about a
machine i've rescued from literally being thrown into a skip as scrap.
The company i work for as just thrown out several UNIX machines.... of these
i managed to rescue:
Complete Silicon Graphics Indy system, with monitor and fully working
SUN SPARCstation IPC, fully working
IBM RS/6000 POWERstation 530, fully working (probably)
There where other (older) machines that went, but unfortunately i wasn't
able to save them.
it's the IBM i'm trying to find information on, like identifying how much
memory it has, disk capacity, CPUs etc... i also want to know how to connect
a terminal up to it so i can get it running on my network and see what's on
it.
It was operational the last time it was turned on, i had to pull the network
and power out of the back of it when i had it so it hasn't been moved since
it was powered off... it used to have a keyboard and a large colour monitor
on it, sadly i dont have these. The CD-Rom drive was also removed for some
reason.
There's a label on the front: 7013 26-0111
and one on the back saying: "This machine upgraded to General Availability
level on 04/10/91"
If anyone has any details on this can you please contact me!
there are some pictures of it at:
