Amazing rescue! Hope nothing breaks.

    The VCF museum took delivery of a VAX 9440 today.
    
    It arrived in two 28-foot trailers. Here's our forklift driver beginning 
    to unload the first truck:

    The full system is 30-40 feet long when it's all set up! It is in 
    pristine condition and was in service at a defense contractor until a 
    couple of months ago.
    
    Rumor has it that we arranged for another one to land in Dave McGuire's 
    Large Scale Systems Museum collection, and a third to be with Bob 
    Roswell's System Source collection. :)  Perhaps they'll post updates too!
