If he's a time traveler from the future, sent back to find an IBM 1500, then:
[list=1][*]Why did he spend so much time on the internet in chatrooms? That has almost nothing to do with finding a computer.[*]Why did they need a physical computer from the past. All the specs for it exist and it would be much easier to build that simple computer then to build a time machine and risk screwing up the world.[*]Why did they need an IBM 1500 to fix a UNIX bug? UNIX is a very simple operating system.[*]Why do the people from the future need specific hardware to fix a software problem? Go find a freakin programmer for cryin out loud.[/list=1]
I don't buy it. I'm skeptical of extra ordinary claims without extra ordinary evidence, and there's too many problems with his story.
