Check out Dave’s Garage new YouTube video about #mainframes. I had the please to meet Dave Plummer when he visited our IBM site in Poughkeepsie, NY last week and showed him around the test floor. My midriff gets a cameo at the 5:30 mark!

We know about the life-size Lego IBM z16/LinuxONE 4 (right?!). Well, I was recently clued into something very special inside the CPC drawer, and my pal @psqlctln got me some close ups.

That's cute, a tiny #IBMz16 inside! But wait, what's that red one next to it? Could it be...?

IT IS!!! There's a tiny Lego IBM System/360 in there! 😍 #mainframe

We have a very rigorous #safety standard that we use to test #IBMz16. Our testing ensures everyone stays safe while servicing your #mainframe.

Thanks again to @psqlctln for getting out on the floor and snapping some great photos for us!
