Turns out to be a IBM PowerServer 520, a 3151 ascii
terminal, a 7207 scsi
tape, a 4226 printer, a couple of concentrator boxes, and the cabeling to
run it all. It boots cleanly into AIX 3.2 and I've got the root password
for it. Sweet, though I didn't get any media or docs or see a C compiler
in there either. Off to the faqs there
Now that looks familiar, we used to have a lot of those around here,
primarily as workstations, or for running batch jobs. I think they're
finally all gone. I don't think I ever scavenged any doc's for it either,
as I had no desire to have a Unix system that is that big and slow.
You should be able to plug a normal (non-IBM) terminal in, or get a video
card for it.
