hi everyone, I've just subbed to this list to try and find out some information about a machine i've rescued from literally being thrown into a skip as scrap. The company i work for as just thrown out several UNIX machines.... of these i managed to rescue: Complete Silicon Graphics Indy system, with monitor and fully working SUN SPARCstation IPC, fully working IBM RS/6000 POWERstation 530, fully working (probably) There where other (older) machines that went, but unfortunately i wasn't able to save them. it's the IBM i'm trying to find information on, like identifying how much memory it has, disk capacity, CPUs etc... i also want to know how to connect a terminal up to it so i can get it running on my network and see what's on it. It was operational the last time it was turned on, i had to pull the network and power out of the back of it when i had it so it hasn't been moved since it was powered off... it used to have a keyboard and a large colour monitor on it, sadly i dont have these. The CD-Rom drive was also removed for some reason. There's a label on the front: 7013 26-0111 and one on the back saying: "This machine upgraded to General Availability level on 04/10/91" If anyone has any details on this can you please contact me! there are some pictures of it at: http://www.daneel.demon.co.uk/images/power01.jpg http://www.daneel.demon.co.uk/images/power02.jpg http://www.daneel.demon.co.uk/images/power03.jpg http://www.daneel.demon.co.uk/images/power04.jpg http://www.daneel.demon.co.uk/images/power05.jpg in case your wondering, i'm in the UK many thanks mark nias ============================== Mark Nias - http://www.mr2.net ==============================
