Hi Michael
I googled for "country code for ibm systems where built" and got a hit for something called Ardent Tool of Capitalism - article called IBM Plant Codes
Got lucky, eh?
Cheers
Vern

Not sure what anyone would do with it. I thought it was worth posting

Perhaps I failed to communicate well. I was talking about the two digit prefix on IBM serial numbers like 78#####.
