Re: Hobbyist looking for Model 170/270/800

The Power 6 has 6.1 installed. The Power 8 has 7.3. Neither had been IPL'd for more than 5 years.

Both of those are capped at V7R3 or lower, correct?

I have a Power 6 and a Power 8 gathering dust. Passwords known. Free for
the asking.

Hi everyone,

I'm a student in Calgary looking for a retired AS/400 for a home lab
(ideally a Model 170, 270, or 800 so it runs on standard wall power).

Does anyone have a dust-collector they'd be willing to sell? I'm hoping to
find one where the QSECOFR password is known, since I don't have the gear to
reset a locked machine.

Happy to cover all shipping costs.

Thanks,
Brett
