>system that we used in the Engineering department. Right, it was the early rack-mount 370 from IBM (1988 or so). We had one, and microcode updates came as BOXES of floppies, which meant some unlucky bastard got to spend a day feeding them into the HMC (a PS/2). Less content in all the boxes than one CD, never mind a DVD or flash drive. And woe betide the poor soul who got a bad floppy on #45 of 50! Which happened. A lot. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
