Collectors of Mainframes.

Well, I don't have any mainframes, but if I had enough room(like a small warehouse), I would definitley be looking for one... For now I'm content to try to fix my IBM Series/1 minicomputer, which was hard enough to get home. I would hate to see what would happen if I tried to get a mainframe into my basement. That brings up two questions: 1) Where do I find old punch cards(used or "new") 2) Would it be possible to hook up a punch card reader to a PC? Read old punch cards with your PC using a mainframe emulator! Yes, I have seen mainframe emulators. I think it's mostly for development(it's a System/370 assembly language emulator IIRC), and it's in one of the big archives... I'll try to find it and post the URL. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here pissed of at the President, because the TV station here put him on instead of The Simpsons... >:-( -JR http://members.tripod.com/~jrollins/index.html http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Lair/1681/
