Why not just pick up a late-model S/390? Some of the newer machines
don't use that much juice, and G6 and z800 machines cost something
approaching reasonable nowadays.
Hell, you can get a small z900 for about the cost of a Hyundai, so I'd
wager even that machine will be affordable soon.
Peace... Sridhar
