It appears that IBM is getting into selling their own mainframes on ebay.

Is that a G5 machine, anyone know?  It looks like it will shortly close for
$6k.

I wonder how well they would take shipping the machine w/o selling an OS to
go with it.  If I recall correctly, despite what Suse, IBM, et al want to
charge for linux, it is still possible to just download it and run it on
the bare metal.
