Arron,
I work for IBM and installed 100's and repaired from the time they were produced until the last one dropped off the IBM service agreement. They were all over the place serving small to medium businesses. They use a proprietary operating system from IBM, it is not windows based at all.
Truthfully you probably can't do anything with it. If you do find a twinax terminal connect it to port 0 and set the terminal to address 0 for the primary console.

I think that I have or had an old book with that system featured in it from 1982 :o

(At least, it's damn heavy for sure, which prevents it from taking off and crack the room ceiling)

Are those the insides of a washing machine??? Well, not actually. That's just the floppy drive motor... Now take a look at the hard drive!

@MixerVM I think it was the 30MB version. The system had drives up to 200MB x2 available as an option from what I hear.
The system has since been scrapped, I've thought about removing the video from Youtube, but I haven't made a decision yet.

@Maxxarcade The HDD doesn't look like 120MB in capacity
I think it would be smaller

@TheChromebuster From what I was told, it was a database/word processor type program used for store inventory.

Yep. Not sure how it could be shipped though. Freight cost would be really high.
