Nope, I have nothing marked for area 9. Curious what putting a S/390 in its
own area gains you (sampsa), though, except potential problems... :-)

Hello!
Let's just say there is a lot of strange noise hanging over his flat.

Temba works, though.

I sometimes have an episode of Trek playing in a window as I'm coding

Dave that big guy is called the Integrated Server or IS/390 it was a
heap big RS/6000 system with the P/390 board plugged into it. Mike
Ross, (remember him?) has one and it is the size and weight of a good
sized person.
Not quite. The S/390 Integrated Server was a VERY large, VERY heavy
Pentium-based PC. (well, large and heavy "for a PC") It contained a
P/390E board and was shipped pre-configured and ready to roll as a
full-blown mainframe with really crappy I/O performance. It is a
deskside box that weighs about 350lbs.
Incidentally, the Multiprise 3000 looks almost identical, but it is a
"real" mainframe. It's an S/390 G5 in a small box with
partially-emulated I/O. Its I/O performance is nowhere near a
full-blown S/390 G5, but it was sold at a fraction of the cost, and is
still a pretty good performer for light-duty production loads. I have
one of these that I've not yet managed to get running; a lot of
unobtainable software is required to bring one up. Operating systems
are (ahem) not a problem, but there's some MP3000-specific
initialization software that is tough to get, that I've not yet been
able to locate.
That's the second one I met in a very long time. I would say they were
not as popular as the crowd you described.
That's because they were gigantic, overpriced PCs with P/390 cards
installed in them. ;)
