I doubt if it comes with DASD.  The system management box is in the CPU
rack, so I would guess that's probably there.  Console is just any old
3270-type terminal.  This machine is worth $3K to someone like a reseller,
or someone who's looking to use it in production right away, to start
selling time on it or something, but not to me.

Peace...  Sridhar
