Furthering its aim of replacing all those millions of 3270 displays out there with PS/2 personal computers, IBM is offering a $100 trade-in credit on each 3275, 3276, 3278, 3279, 3178, 3179, 3180, 8775, 5251, 5291 or 5292 out there when replaced on a one-for-one basis by specified PS/2 or RT models – and a $50 trade in on old Telex or Lee Data or whatever compatibles. Aimed at those with a volume procurement amendment for workstations, it is in addition to any other discounts. But beware, it’s a good deal on most models, but one or two, 3179s in particular, are worth much more.
