Dave Plummer did a video about current IBM mainframes, a lot of it is probably already well-known by folks here but some interesting footage at 12:25 of the physical vibration and shock testing done to them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouAG4vXFORc Also check out the comments section if you want to see current IBM employees buzzing about seeing their work represented and former mainframe programmers getting nostalgic.
