In another thread I read that without the emulation card, an IBM 3270 if just a glorified 5150.
Exactly what is the emulations card? Is it the one with the BNC connector output?
The reason I ask is, I was out back in garage #4 digging out IBM computes to sell on ebay and have 4 3270's in the pile.
I am not a collector. I am a "junque dealer" who has been "collecting" a bunch of inventory I haven't sold yet. I used to sell electronics at HAM swapmeets and through Nuts & Volts magazine. Now I sell solely on ebay. I know this stuff to a limited degree, but am ignorant about the details, like "what makes it a 3270". OR How to correct a parity error on a 5150 -- another thread here has me ready to pull my parity error computer and see if I can easily solve its problem........thanks to you.
