Well, if you like AS400's there's a trailer-load of AS400 bits at a 2nd
hand place down a side-road near SmithsCity Market - lock for a
roller-door opposite "Hop Yick" chinese merchant. $30 the lot I think

Two PCG's too - the *original* 4.77MHz screamers from IBM, with built-in
cassette ports....

Oh, and some RS6000 stuff too!

It is with great sadness, that I must inform you of the death of a once
proud 
project, to resurrect, run, and through the cable modem, share, an AS400

System 36/9402.  This had the possibility of happening, but not while I
didnt 
know a damn thing about them.

Wesley will surely be as crushed, or at least disappointed as I with the

surrender, as the machine was his, and it was initially his plan with it
too.

In my internet travels, and talking with people about the AS400, I learn
that 
I had a shot at attaching the server to the network, running a terminal 
emulator for it, and Remote Administering it from the SuSE box.  This
remote 
shot was quelled by the discovery of a "Network Card" fault (locked on
TX), 
and a still horrific lack of knowledge about the machine in the first 
instance.

I will keep the machine, on the off chance that suitable parts/knowledge
comes 
my way slowly to restore the old girl to her working glory, and share
the 
machine with you all, but until that happens, she will be missed.
