As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Personally I feel they should have paid you to take it. I used to have a
270. You'd be better served by getting access to timeshare. However,

What versions of IBM i are supported on a 270?
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=ssm1platformibmi
Basically V4R5 to V5R4M1
Starting with V5R1 you have software licensing which basically says
reinstall every 70 days. Granted, doing that is illegal.
Console options for a 270.
Might have been either "Operations Console" (not to be confused with "Lan
Console") and Twinax.
