From: Steve Richter <srichter@AutoCoder.com> the 170s on ebay are processor feature #2164. Cpw 125/29, unconstrained ( whatever that means ) 210/29. Does this mean those 170s have 6x128MB main storage and 8x8.58GB dasd ? If so, then the 170s on ebay are a better deal for dasd and main memory than the 250. What is doable and what is allowed re: programming languages, v5r1 and v4r5 on the 170? Can you do a full v4r5, v5r1 install on these 170s ? Are you allowed to buy a cheaper model on ebay that comes with v4r5 and then install on the 170 as replacement hardware for the cheaper model ? ===> Anne L and friends. I find it truly amazing that we (the experts :-) can't figure something like this out. Says a lot abut how far IBM's marketing still has to go. It is just WAY too hard to navigate this jungle.
