"S/390" is the IS/390, which is a PC running OS/2
containing a PCI card with an S/390 processor on it, and a bunch of
i960-based ARTIC960 CHANNEL-emulation cards. It doesn't really compare
with a full-size S/390.
I seem to remember something that was more than just a tower - it
might have weighed a few hundred pounds. Not a PC??
Are you thinking of a Multiprise 3000? A bit more than a desktop, and a bit
more than a deskside RS/6000 (7013) chassis, but small(er) when compared to a
single-rack S/390 or Mulitprise 2003 box.
