I remember both. I really remember lugging my 150 around to seminars and
classes all over the country. A Windows Server, monitor, 150, and 5250
device. 4 large containers. I'd drag them into hotel conference rooms, set
up, and give seminars. Wow...that used to be a lot of work. Good thing I
was doing it while I was young. I've seen those boxes get thrown around and
dropped. Never a problem.
