Re: Hop in your way back machines

I remember both. I really remember lugging my 150 around to seminars and
classes all over the country. A Windows Server, monitor, 150, and 5250
device. 4 large containers. I'd drag them into hotel conference rooms, set
up, and give seminars. Wow...that used to be a lot of work. Good thing I
was doing it while I was young. I've seen those boxes get thrown around and
dropped. Never a problem.

I remember a lady from one of the vendors rolling a fairly large luggage
bag into the COMMON conference in San Fran. She got stuck in the
escalator because the bag was too wide. We gave her some grief about
"What you got in that thing?" She replied "An AS/400!" Turned out she
had a model 150 in there not this little "Portable one" unit. The
Portable 1 was a CISC box and the 150 was at least RISC.

We had one of those P02 systems at my former company. The sales reps

loved it. We also took it to some user meetings for training.

Ah the good old days before high-speed Internet access!
