Today we powered up bay one on KI10 522, no smoke. Two more to go and we’ll be living in the fast ACs.

I’m sorry you got to miss taking a peek at this Clem!

Unfortunately the photo of the power supplies doesn't have enough pixels to read the power ratings on either the original linear supplies (which likely wasted a buttload of power) or the modern switch-mode power supplies.

Kirk: Need MORE PIXELS, Scotty!
Scott: I cannae bend th'laws of physics, Captain!

Seriously: this is a nice achievement!  SN 522 isn't the one that was on display at the formerly living computer museum, I don't think...  What happened to that one?

Thanks and regards,
John Francini
[10,422] back in the day...
