IBM publishes a CD known as the "white pages" or consultants guide which
covers a large varriety of equipment that can be searched by"machine type" or
text string. I will follow up with a contact # if I can find it. The drawback
with this list is that as things get older they are dropped off the list. By
the way, the 3089 is a check sorter used in LARGE banks. I deal in IBM
mainframe stuff and can help with i.d.'s if you need it. I am looking for a
listing of FRU's (field replaceable units) or part numbers in a digital
format. If you know of anything like that available, I would appreciate it if
you could pass it along.
