New POWER toys

[dogas at bellsouth.net]

The other day the mailman delivered the bills and a lead saying a doctor's office around the corner wanted to get rid of their 'big old' computer.  Picture my stationwagon's wheels squealing out of the driveway moments later.  ;)

Turns out to be a IBM PowerServer 520, a 3151 ascii terminal, a 7207 scsi tape, a 4226 printer, a couple of concentrator boxes, and the cabeling to run it all.  It boots cleanly into AIX 3.2 and I've got the root password for it.  Sweet, though  I didn't get any media or docs or see a C compiler in there either.  Off to the faqs there

It was supprisingly liftable after an earlier experience toting a 'small' AS400.

Has anyone been inside a 3151 terminal?  The screen is pretty dim even with the front contrast knob jacked up all the way.   Is there a pot inside (and where) to brighten the screen?  

And can anyone recommend any of the cool cards/options  to look out for?  It's my first AIX box.  

Thanks
