I made my first major equipment move today. It was a
System/34 system
unit (5340), a System/36 system unit (5360), two band printers (3262), and
two tape drives (8809). About 5,000 lb. as near as I can figure. Nothing
fell over or hurt anybody- very encouraging for the next move (although
now I'm out of room!)
Better you than me...moved a 6262 band printer from a warehouse office to our
DP office the other day, darn near killed ourselves even using a forklift to
get it from the docks to the office as tall as it is. I'm still amazed at some
of this stuff - how big it is and what it does, all on a standard 110v plugin.
I personally don't know if I'd want the 6262 in my house though.
