Rather than trying a kind o fidonet like transportation system why don't
we work together to negotiate a rate with a national electronic
equipment mover.
Maybe through the ausipices of an existing non-profit organization like
the VCFED or maybe an organization of museums.
Good luck.

create a FIDONET of shipping vintage computer items from one node to the

cheaply from point A to point B (via several less expensive hops).

This is something I've thought about from time to time. It can more
readily be accomplished today with the increased interest and participation
in this hobby: there are a lot more collectors out there now across the
entire USA and Canada.
