Re: S36 emulation mode

One local company actually pitched their iSeries into the dumpster after 
they green streaked it with a upgrade.  Didn't want to mess with Ebay.

I guess that's a good enough reason to convert.. I didn't think there
was many S/36's left anywhere.

You "might" find a service bureau with a S/36 sitting around or
even an older 400 with a 8" drive installed.
 
They didn't do any backup on tape ???

What a shame... I have seen many S/36's thrown in dumpsters.
