Wow!
Those machines are still useful, even in todays measures. Many still use
them in production today.
We once had an RS/6000-570F that we tossed away to another computer
club, which already had a couple of 370's, 530's, 560's, 950 and others.
We thought AIX didn't quite "fit" in our computer hall with all those
Sun-servers. :-)
(I've always hated AIX for some reason, plus HP-UX, but that's another
story...)

Actually, the pictures seems a bit "fuzzy"... is it just the bad
lightning that cause this?
Try using the flash when taking dark pictures, as digital cameras tend
to "self-adjust" in dark enviroments and more than often they fail.
Ofcourse, your pics ain't that big in file-size, so I can't complain
really. :-)
How much is that camera?
