First, a bit of background to give you a frame of reference:
I am a programmer with 1 year of real-world experience. At work
we run IBM System/390 machines running MVS 5.1.  At home, i have
a home-built PC running Linux 2.0.26 and. . .(deep breath)...

I just 'inheirited' a Hewlett-Packard 7912 with a HP250 peripheral
interface channel and 3 dummy terminals.

I have no information on this machine except for the following:
    (1) It was purchased in 1984 for $80,000
    (2) It is 2 pieces, each 4x4x2.5 feet LxWxH.

Can somebody PLEASE tell me ANYTHING about this machine!?

Thanks, Everybody.
