A friend of mine just obtained an AS400.
It is a "9406-170 System S104V7NM Subsystem QCTL".
I know nothing of AS400s. He did say it boots.
So, what specs are this ? What does it run (OS ?, Apps ?),
and what can be done with it (he was originally going to use
it as an end table !!! until he found it actually booted).
Runs OS/400 (or i5/OS or whatever else they're calling it these days).
Primarily programmed in RPG. Kicks some database ass. Has DB2 built-in
to the operating system.
The memory management architecture can be considered unusual.
