220 volts, single phase is the power needed. Don't
think they can be set to
115v. but I could check the hardware manual I got stashed in some box
around here that is not yet unpacked.
The 3262's are however on wheels which would make moving somewhat easier.
Mr. Donzelli is one of the listmembers who knows IBM Big Iron. He might
chime-in on the other components.
Well, I was not part of either of the RCS/RI System 3x moving parties.
Sorry.
Looking at the S/34 however, it looks like taking heavy bits out might
just be a real pain in the butt.
One interesting chunk of trivia is that IBM actually put some thought into
deciding how big to make these machines. They had their engineers make the
box so it could be moved around inside "standard" office building
elevators, as they did not want to screw themselves out of sales just
because of a few inches.
