    IBM stuff

    Because I am moving to NV I had to cut down/eliminate my hobby. Collecting IBM stuff.

    It all went to the Computer Museum of America in Roswell. Relax, in Georgia.

            This is nerdy.

            The models that were in the 2 black suitcases were models of a System/360 Model 70. It was used in the 1964 Worlds Fair IBM pavilion. The interesting thing is IBM changed their mind and actually released a Model 75. The 70 never actually existed.

              Some of those disk drive gadgets look vaguely like Star Trek spaceships.

                Gotta wonder if the OP owns a IBM M-1 carbine?
                Some say that he once mooned two prostitutes just for a round of drinks, but wasn't surprised by the reply......They call him, the Hutch
                Some say that he rode a dirtbike 7k miles across the country and that he once applied Bengay to his own testicles for a mere $50............They call him, the Hutch -Top Gear
