RE: AS400 9406-620 console connection

Hmmm. That's a possibility. I'll have to go get my skis. They're in Reno,
however. I left them with a friend when I moved back east in '95.

Unless that time is spent on a trip to the Alps or to Mankato!

I recently acquired an AS400 9406-620. I am not sure what is installed

on it, I received it in "as-is" condition from a 3rd party (scrap
dealer). I need to figure out an inexpensive way to get a console
connected to it. I have seen some cheap IBM 5250 PCI cards on eBay -
are drivers still available for these? What software do I need to have

to make it work? Or should I try and find a terminal?
