Time is precious :)?
So - who doesn't know the issue ... too many machines, too little time.

How did you solve that dilemma?

Swarm intelligence needed - identification of "special" IBM RS/6000

I got an IBM RISC Syteem/6000 Type 7006 Model 410 (or 41O?) of which I cannot find any information. Does anyone know details or even has documentation? What's special? It contains a GT4xi.

C16101 in my Sun SPARCstation 10 wanted to tell me something using smoke signs today ... unfortunately I couldn't read them - but will replace it with a new cap - also looking carefully around that camp fire region ... 🔥
