Actually, P&H uses regular sized forklifts. They're equiped with a device hooked up to their AIX mainframe

WAIT! STOP! Is an AIX machine a mainframe??? I don't
think so. I know the definition is a slippery one,
but to me a mainframe is a Syztem z machine, or one
of its predecessors (or a competitive machine from
the past; maybe Unisys today).



that tells
them where to go and what to do next. The big stuff all gets moved around by P&H Overhead Cranes. Those are good for moving around 8 X 10 chunks of steel 4 or 5 inches thick.

.... One of those [IT] people got a job at higher pay as a forklift operator!


Yeah, but aren't those forklifts the same big ones the railroads use to
move locomotives from one track to another?  :-)
