[QUOTE="Madasafish, post: 513778, member: 33834"] 6150 - I cut my teeth on the AT&T 3B Series, Fortune 32:16, Altos and of course the IBM PC. I then specialized on the IBM 6150 which was IBM's foray into the Unix (AIX) world followed by the RS6000 which was used to beat Garry Kasporov at Chess using a special AI program. (Big Blue) Token Ring - (Yes) and there was also the Hub Port Concentrators. - I think you are referring to Async Port concentrators for dumb V24 connected terminals. Connectors that there was no Tooling for Thick ethernet beesting taps. - I think you mean Vampire Taps for Thick Ethernet (10base5) Although credit goes to Rank Xerox who invented ethernet and were the first to use the technology to link computers. They are also responsible for "The mouse" and GUI Interfaces we all use today. Steve Job's from Apple pinched it off them. IBM can also be credited with the following... ATM (Where you get your cash from) DRAM (Memory Chips) Electronic Key Punch Financial Swaps Floppy Disks Hard Disks Magnetic Stripe Card (You have on your bank cards) Relational Database SQL RISC (IBM 6150 and RS6000) The Bar Code VM (Virtual Machine) Now superseded by Docker Scanning Tunneling Microscope [/QUOTE]
