Folks -- I just wanted to take an opportunity to thank Sellam and Walter for the AS/400. Walter help me load the beast up, along with not one but three versions of the complete manual set. My back is much better now, if anyone asks. The system is home, and ticking over nicely. I've spent the balance of the weekend toying with it. I'd especially like to thank the guys for the opportunity at an IBM 5364. Walter had this sitting in the back of his basement and mentioned it while packing up manuals. I've had my eye out for such a critter for about two years. I haven't got a PC set up as a controller yet, but I'm very keen to take a crack at it. As always, I can offer myself as at least a physical resource for the S/36 gear, and now a bit of the OS/400. Anyone interested in a surplus set of manuals (and possessed of a strong back) reply quick. The surplus will be dutifully recycled. That should give you DEC geeks a warm and fuzzy since most of it will be reincarnated as toilet paper, I'm sure. Thanks again, Colin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 12:06:33 -0400 From: W. E. Perry <wperry(a)fiduciary.com> To: donate(a)vintage.org Subject: AS/400 1991 9404 I have a 1991 vintage AS/400 9404, located in New Jersey, with original QIC120 distribution of system software through 1993 OS/400 v3 and *ALL* manuals. In storage since 1995, but working then. Would you want this machine or could you point me to someone who might? Thank you. Walter Perry
