What to Do with a PS/2?

This brings back memories. One place I worked used a IBM "Industrial" PS/2. It's main board was the same as a regular PS/2 don't remember the model. We were buying so many of these things IBM set us up as reseller. Still have the "Authorized Reseller" sign somewhere in the basement. These things were not cheap, remember something like 3 times the price of the regular model, but they were all the same parts in a rack mount case. But being IBM even though we never needed a keyboard, mouse etc. Everyone came with one. Still have a couple of the keyboards, the only difference all the industrial systems were a dark gray. The big waste was the software, every system came with a PS/2 box with both a CD and floppies, and an envelope with driver / firmware floppies. For the longest time we could not throw out the software, we had in dock at one time the whole top row of pallet racks where PS/2 Floppies, CDs, keyboard, mice, etc etc. And one day PS/2 was updated ... something like 400 new copies of the O/S showed up on pallets. I remember at that point the lawyers getting more involved and all the excess disappeared. On Mon, Jan 25, 2016 at 10:25 AM, Mark J. Blair <nf6x at nf6x.net> wrote:
