   Ah, yes, another IBM Japan "special".  The seller probably has no idea   
   what it is, but it's old and heavy and looks very "industrial IBM", so   
   he thinks it's super valuable.  In truth, it's basically e-waste - a   
   customized AT-like platform designed to push/pull SDLC lines, obsolete   
   before 1990 arrived.
