RE: Is a 9406-720 worth anything?

["Bob Crothers" <bob2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

GA,

I've given you all the information I have.  No idea on what the OS level is or
even if the machine will IPL.  Or how long since it was powered one...doesnt the
system password expire after a machine sits powered off for a while?

I'm told that physically, it is "the size of a small refrigerator".  Don't know
if there are other racks with disk drives or other things.

I've literally given you everything I know!  Eg: Model and serial number.

Bob
