Anyone have any pulled MA3172s they can help this gent with or know of a
source for them? All I have are dead 8514s and I'm not good with a
soldering iron--I don't think this fella would want to buy/ship the whole
monitor just for the chip and I would destroy it if I tried to pull it.

In addition to giving you an easier climb, that also blocks the dumpster so
that the trash truck can't get to it. Y'all be *careful* out there. I do
*not* want to read about a compacted classic computer collector with his
compacted hands clenched around a compacted Altair. Or even a Rainbow.

I found a person getting rid of a a couple of H960 tall cabs
worth of DEC hardware -- and I'm the first one to have
contacted him. I can take it all away... If I can find a
place to store it (without having to completely reorganize
the insides of my condo... I've got a call into RCS/RI for
some space)...
anyway, what I can get is an 11/34 (unknown condition) with
a VT11, VR14 (and light pen) and an LPS11, as well as four
(4) pdp-8s of various types with various media... !!!
A pdp-8/a
A pdp-…
[View More]8/e
A pdp-8/f (the lab-8)
another -8, I think it was an 8/m
A couple of RL02s, Diablo style rk05s, rx01, dectapes...
all in two tall cabs and a short cab.
I don't want to let this one get away from me, so if I don't
hear from RCS/RI, I may just have to compress (gzip) my
condo... :-)

Not much. That equates to about A$50 plus shipping across the Pacific.
But if all else fails. I am led to believe I can get a new one for about
A$75 or so, but I
need to confirm this. That's more than I wanted to pay, but I may not have
a choice.

The multiplex cable with 2 d connectors at each end that go from the DEC
Pro380 Vaxconsole to
the backplane of the VAX 85xx series of computers. (Nautilus I think is the
processor family)

So have I - several of the RSX-11 DECUS tapes that are now available
from
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11
were rescued from TRIUMF when they dumped all the 9-tracks they had
in the Chem Annex.
Hint for those who haven't done much dumpster diving: back your car
or truck up to the …
[View More]dumpster, climb into the dumpster via your rear
bumper, and start tossing :-).
