Re: AS/400 surplus machine

Whoops, I caught myself after I posted...

The E10s are worthless, period.  The reference to the IOP cards, as I now
remember it, were from a quote we got for some other RISC equipment that we
own.  Sorry about that.

Just so you're not holding your breath, because of our due diligence policy, I
was required to get quotes for our 9404 E10s which have been sitting in
storage for the past year or so.  Out of several resellers I contacted, only a
few were courteous enough to get back to me to tell me that these were
basically worthless, save for the IOP cards.

Got a boat?

 A couple of months ago I bought a used 9404 with two operator consoles, to
see if I could get some PL/1 applications ported from a Wang VS system.

Due to the difficulty in obtaining the required software, we've abandoned
this project and would like to dispose of this hardware.  The operating
system loaded on the machine is OS/400 v2r1.

If anyone is interested in this hardware, you can pick it up in Columbia,
SC.  It's pretty heavy, so I don't think it would be worth having it
commercially packaged and shipped.  But if you're in the area, you're
welcome to pick it up.
