IBM-POC
IBM Factory Process Operators Console 1984
This Process Operators Console was used on the production lines in a 1980's "Then State Of The Art" semiconductor Chip factory. Today it occasionally becomes part of my 6 year old Grandson's Space Ship.
It powers up, the fan runs and the early LED character displays light up.
The top 8 character display can be typed into on the alphabetic and numeric keyboards.
The factory control buttons do not work on the now-nonexistent factory in Fishkill New York :-)
NOTE: To zoom in, click on image, then click again, cursor does + - Then scroll (Back arrow to get back)

IBM Technology used to make IBM Technology
See the inside details of how IBM used it's own technology to build high end factories.
The power cord is an older 3-pin type (What was this? Can they be found anywhere?). UPDATE: Very Rare now: See This
