I'd dearly love to know their plans when that box dies.
- We'll just take our old CISC code, with all observability removed, and
restore it on to a new Power 8 running 7.3.
- We'll just take this 8" diskette and pop it into a new Power 8
- We'll find an old one on Ebay, which can only go down to V4R5, and try
to IPL off of our 8" diskette, saved at V2R3 and restore the OS and stuff
from that.
- Hey, we bought 10 of these back in the day and they're sitting in
storage to be used as recovery systems, or cannibalized for spare parts.
- We have all the source on printout. We'll just rekey it (I've actually
done one of these back on PC's a few decades back. Got my kid sister a
temp job that way.).

I thought Europe was a bureaucrat's dream. I don't think this kind of a
recovery plan would survive SOX on my side of the pond.
