Check out this:- http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400945276 9402 OR 9404 Model 400 WITH 2131 Processor w/V4R3 LICENSED SOFTWARE INSTALLED!!!(9402-400 AND 9404-400 ARE THE SAME, THE 9404-400 IS JUST A UPGRADED MODEL ) READY FOR YOUR DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, A SOFTWARE TEST MACHINE OR THIS BOX WILL RUN A SMALL TO MEDIUM BUSINESS!!!!!!!!! 224MB Main Storage.... 16GB DASD... 6390 7GB 8MM Tape Drive.... 7108 CARD EXPANSION FEATURE.... 5135 FEATURE POWER SUPPLY .... 2617 ETHERNET ADAPTER & Ethernet Transceiver 2619 TOKEN RING ADAPTER BASE CD-ROM 9148 TWINAX SUPPORT 40 DEVICES My machine looks EXACTLY like this one, except it doesn't have a CDROM. It doesn't have this much ram etc either, but I was under the impression that the CISC machines are in a different outer case to the RISC boxes. Like I said, now I'm really confused......... Is there more than one type 9402??? ie one CISC, one RISC? One other person has suggested the CISC machines (Version 1 and 2 AS/400) are in a grey case. Who knows. Getting anything useful out of IBM or their web site except for the latest and greatest version is about as simple as getting a bank loan.
