"Beast" is how we refer to our small z10 where I work.

I collect vintage computers as-well so I know what these devices are actually. As for seeing them in person I have yet to. But I've seen a System/3/32/34/36/370 in person before. I actually own an 026 Keypunch, although it still needs some restoration before its punching cards again. I also own a 5444 style pack drive sitting next to me, not an IBM drive though. Its for a Data General Nova 4 that's in the rack with it. -Connor K ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN _____________________________________________________________ Netscape.
