They probably got rid of that HMC because it didn't support the latest
version of HMC code, which would have been needed for a newer Power
system. Either that or they dumped Power systems altogether.
What version of HMC code can you run on that HMC?

Frankly the Power system is a waste of time and money. It's too old to
teach you anything. Any version of IBM i you could load on it would
require a software key, "IF" you could even get one it's not worth the
price for the home hobbyist.
But that HMC might be of some interest to someone with a less than current
Power system who would like to learn about HMC and have a nice remotely
accessible console.
