Funny this should come up. I have a PS/2 server sitting in front of me.
I don't know about thememory bandwidth, but it is pretty well
contructed. It's a microchannel setup with the 486/50 CPU on a separate
board. It has a SCSI controller and a token ring card, 16M of parity
SIMMs and no drives save the floppy.
Worth playing with?? What OS?
