Yeah, but unfortunately this one is an older CISC
machine. I had also
checked to see if NetBSD ran on it, but there isn't a port yet, and it
doesn't look like there ever will be. And it appears that OS/400 is
pure unobtanium. It's too bad, I would love to learn OS/400, and it
would be great to get this machine running again, but unless I somehow
come up with a system tape, it's just going to be a piece of furniture.
If anyone ever comes up with some real system tapes, please save them!
The lack of "early" IBM software is really annoying (not only AS/400, but
for the earlier S/3x and S/3 lines, and even the mainframe lines).
