For awhile we marketed AS/400s to Series/1 sites by showing them how to 
replace multiple S/1 boxes with one AS/400 and a piece of software. (The 400 
can talk to anything too!)

But, then we ran out of S/1 sites.

I think most S/1 were phased out because of Y2K.  I know Advantis (now ATT 
Global, but was Advantis Global) used S/1 as comm front ends for BSC comms 
into their network.  They dumped them all late in 1999.  The S/1 was an 
unbelievable box. It could/would talk to ANYTHING.
