Are there sources for the keys? My ancient RS/6000 has the lock
'sprung' so that any screwdriver will turn it. My SparcServer 1000 has
the lock intact (and I have the key).
I don't know about credentials, but the aesthetics are certainly
diminished in my eyes. And if it's a choice of having an intact
ornament and a looted, running system, I'll drill it or spring it ina
heartbeat.
I have keys to all my RS/6000s, and my SS1000 is drilled out. ;)
