Spoof: Ancient Egyptians ran the AS/400

nbsp;Mid-deranged.com’s “article” is called “Egyptians More Advanced than Earlier Believed.” Turns out they were running a data center with an AS/400. But I’ve got some problems with this piece. Clearly it wouldn’t be an AS/400 they would be running, but rather a System/38 or System/36, right?

The S/38 requires too much power and too much cooling.
They would have opted for the AS/400.

Well everyone knows that archeology isn’t an exact science!
