Hi all,
I can't find my original post about this stuff from a few months ago. But,
I have finally finished the inventory of the modules and other tidbits that
I must shed.

As I said before, I'd rather not get into parting this stuff out and shipping.
I would much prefer someone come by with an SUV or a truck and took it all.
I'm located about 40 miles east of downtown LA.

I created a vintage (ha!) html site that has lists of most of it.
I did put one picture on the documentation page, and will put other pics
up if there is something you want to see. Or if you need further details on
anything in particular, let me know.

Wow, quite a collection of DEC manuals. Is the mini books mostly PDP-11 and Vax? or is there any PDP-8 stuff in there to?

Also, this 3rd party card: "1 Virtual Micro 0500-00288 80286 AT Co-Processor"
Is it an Intel 286? How the heck is it supposed to be used? I would like to see a picture.

Finally, for whoever that picks this up, this is pretty nice card: "1 TD Systems Viking Disk Controller 1987 Single 50 pin connector"
 
All the minis are either PDP11 or VAX.
The co-processor is an Intel 80286 AT. It was used to execute x86 code under
control of a Unibus PDP or Vax. I'll post a picture later today.
 
All,
I know gas is expensive right now, particularly in CA, but I don't want to have to dump this stuff.
I'll gladly just give it to someone that comes by, despite saying 'for sale'.

I'd consider a road trip down from Seattle to collect the lot but the gas alone would be over $600.
 
If you would consider shipping, I'd be interested in the dual & quad wire-wrap Q-Bus modules, the VuRam display boards, and the working PDT-11, depending on what you wanted for them.
 
Roger,

Unfortunately, I am in New York, so a drive is impossible for me also. However, it would be a sin for those boards to hit the dump. If you would be willing to just put the 11-related boards (less what has already been asked for) in a box, even with just newspaper, and put it in the mail, I'll gladly send payment for the shipping plus additional funds for your trouble. Please send me a private message if you are willing.

Thank you for making this post here and giving us the opportunity to make good use of this equipment you have collected.
