This system is NOT going to be cheap to ship.
DS-50's are Century Data top loading washing machine
drives, same size and weight as CDC 9762's. Roughly
300 lbs each.
I would be doubtful the system has had the heads locked
either.
Hopefully I am not not violating the terms here. I have two 9 track tapes
for sale on Ebay.
From the label they appear to have Fortran versions 4.5A and 4.5A. I
assume and it could be
for a Vax VMS system.
Anyway, opening bid is $10 plus actuall shipping. That is basically below
what my time is worth to
box them up and take them to a post office. I am parsing my collection a
little and found them.

Hi
Is it possible that he is a fictitious person used by many
venders as a shill bidder? Maybe he is bidding for some museum
as well??
One used to be able to get things like the name of the person
and where they lived from the ebay register but they have
quite doing that.

Anybody know what this is? It's a single width board with an ~ 5 foot
cable attached. The other end of the cable has a DB-25M connector. The only
markings on the board are "FLIP CHIP" and "cable connector 5010295B M9700".

Though, I'm a bit worried about time... I want it for a machine I'm
going to be exhibiting at VCF/Midwest and that's only 2 weeks away
now... shipping to/from Canada might take too long, and I don't have
that much to spend on getting this working.

Before anyone else wastes their time, Mr Finnegan is willing to
pay FIFTEEN whole American Dollars for the board.
Next time, just SAY how much you're willing to spend before I
waste my time looking for one.
Hi Guys,
I've got a lot of stuff in storage at my parents' office, but they have to
move this weekend and I've been told they're not moving all my stuff, so
it has to go.
Unfortunatly, I'm now living on the other side of the atlantic, so I can't
take it with me, so this is a call to everyone on the list to find homes
for things :&)
I'd much rather it go to someone who'll give it a good home than just put
it on ebay or such. Some of it has sentimental value - I'm sure you know
how it goes.
Anyway - Fred's already arranging to pick up most of the DEC stuff, but
there's a lot more.
Take a look at a list and photos at http://pkl.net/~matt/stuff/forsale/
Like I said - it's all got to go by Sunday (although I might be able to
hold onto stuff until tuesday/wednesday).
I'll be back in the UK on Thursday, but there'll be someone around all
week if you want to pick stuff up.
Unfortunatly, I'm not sure I can handle shipping much of this.
Please drop me a line if you want anything (and if you wanna make a
contribution to my moving fund, that would be most appreciated).
Or you can probably find me on irc.freenode.net #classiccmp as Matt
