I saw a RS6000 3CT, model 7030 today. Google's results suggest it's Power2
67mhz, 3 MCA slots, and 512mb max ram.  It appears to have 68pin scsi
(says "SCSI-2 SE" above the wide port), a token ring card, and a 13w3
video card of some sort. The model sticker read "7030 26-AAKAC".

Looks like this might be an interesting box to work on AIX with. I have no
idea about the actual RAM or disk, but I do know where I can get a second
ethernet for it.

Any thoughts on this critter, as I wander Google's expansive halls for
more details? Is it worth $50?
