[rescue] [OT] S: IBM /370 or /390 card

[Lionel Peterson]

I spotted an AT/370 at the recent Midwest VCF but I didn't ask about price, for fear I *could* 'afford' it. ;^)

There once was also a company that made Sun SPARCstations that occupied a full-height 5 1/4" drive space, I'd love to have one of those, but I think they were a bit under-powered Sun4m based systems (like an SS/5?). They were called SPARCplugs:
