Three geeks rescue a 50-year-old IBM 360 mainframe from an abandoned building
The IBM 360/20 is very limited. It's punched cards in and out. But the IBM 360/125 has disks and communications.<p>Getting it working, though. Huge job. It's taken years to get the IBM 1401 machines at the Computer Museum in Mountain View running, and they have help from some of the designers and maintenance people.
