Watch out for this, guys! This was sent to me, and looks very real, if you click on the link. They ask for everything and more. The amount of info they ask for, would make it very easy to take your identity, money, etc!!

OT: Florida junkyard

by aw288＠osfn.org

I received a lead on some interesting junk located in Iverness, Florida, and I need some eyes and ears. Is anyone local to that area? The interesting junk in question is an AN/FPS-7 radar set (minus antenna). This is a very large, powerful, 1950s air defense set - look for lots of very large waveguide. And if you go to the yard - who knows, you might see some cool DECjunk. William Donzelli aw288(a)osfn.org

FW: Huge lot of DEC parts on E-pay

by mbg＠TheWorld.com

I would also chip in a little... but even though I'm sort of in the neighborhood (about 20 minutes away from him), I don't have the storage space for such a haul... Then the question becomes how we part things out to people? Does someone start offering them on ebay? Do they get parted out to the people who contributed to save them (and who decides the value)? Do they get maintained as a central cache where CCmpR's can purchase spares (with the contributors getting a price break)? So much hardware... it would be shame to see it disappear from the available pool forever... (if course, that would mean that whatever is left is that much more valuable).

I would think about it... but I'm a 'foreign national'. Funny they think they can discriminate against permanent residents that way... ho hum. Well never mind - I WILL bring my Connection Machine to VCF-East! :-) Wonder if there are prizes for 'most blinkenlights'? :-) BTW anyone else who owns one please get in touch - there can't be many of us!

Mike 2 8008 Computer on EBAY

by gmphillips＠earthlink.net

Not sure if anyone here might be interested in this. Never seen one on EBAY before. Didn't this machine show up around the same time as the Mark-8? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2067562893

Fwd: Data General Eclipse in East Aurora, NY being scrapped (fwd)

by foo＠siconic.com

See below Christian's message for the information on 5 Data General Eclipse's waiting to be scrapped after this weekend. Can anyone rescue them? Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org * Old computing resources for business and academia at www.VintageTech.com * ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 06 Nov 2002 22:11:10 -0500 From: Christian Fandt <cfandt(a)netsync.net> To: Sellam Ismail <foo(a)siconic.com> Subject: Fwd: Data General Eclipse in East Aurora, NY being scrapped Hey Sellam! Sorry I can't talk much at the moment, but I would like to ask you to pass this on to the ClassicCmp list. I cannot take the gear but it should _definitely_ be rescued. Wish I had the space (and time too! This is short notice for me.). Guess the fella found my email address through the Rescue List or maybe a web search, or ? East Aurora is a suburb of Buffalo, it's about five to ten miles southeast of the city and about ten or so miles "inland" from Interstate 90. Best regards to everyone. I promise to write to you, Sellam, later in the Fall to see what's been happenin' lately. -Chris NNNN -- -- >From: "Eric Kotz" <eric(a)erickotz.com> >To: <cfandt(a)netsync.net> >Subject: Data General Eclipse in East Aurora, NY being scrapped >Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 09:50:54 -0500 >X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106 >X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=5.0 > tests=none > version=2.31 >X-Spam-Level: > >Hello, > I saw you are interested in many Data General systems.
