ahh bingo! I found this comment on the Amazon book review:

"The description of the ancient 1988 IBM AS 400 and the terminals from a 1970's spy film that were still cranking away on the 17th floor when Madoff went under is priceless.”

If movie-makers are going for authenticity then they will want a white-box AS/400
