There appears to be a Z system in the photos. Image035.jpg is a photo showing the open system bay, and the HMC laptop. It is beyond critical that that laptop be carefully preserved and handled, as that will be the difference between junk and possibly turning it on and running it again. The 3490 numbers refer to the tape library in the image025.jpg. Please make sure that Dave McGuire has seen this before they destroy anything, as he is making a serious effort to restore a couple of mainframes. I think his current system is contemporary with the mainframe hiere. The 3174-1 is almost certainly a channel attached unit, probably with bus / tag to this unit. I don't know of a conversion to run the 3174-1's off anything but copper, but there may be escon boxes to be preserved that do this if it isn't copper bus / tag cable sets. I'd love a couple of coax terminals but not the entire lot if possible. I have a couple of 3174-63's that one or two would go nicely with for Hercules use. Thanks Jim Thanks, Jim. I have let them know to preserve the laptop, and asked for a price for the system. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
