This one has AIX on it... it fails bootup and drops you to some sort
of prompt right after it plays it's tune (with the little speaker
icon).
You can type ls at the prompt and gets what looks like a list of devices.
Should I bit it, or is it worth trying to fix? Anyone point me in the
right direction?
You are probably in an EFI shell. I am afraid your hard drive has failed.
You'll need to replace it.
I must say, that is a cool thing to have in a closet.
