Megahaul on July 4th

by iamcamiel＠gmail.com

Hi Guys, Today me and my brother (truck driving license, no interest in old iron) had the biggest haul of DEC stuff I ever had (ex-collector moving to a smaller apartment). I'm picking up a second load in a week or two. Pictures at http://www.flickr.com/photos/7816395 at N04/sets/72157630422540146/ A quick inventory: PDP stuff: - PDP 11/44 - PDP 11/84 - 3 x RL02 - Professional 325 - Professional 350 VAX stuff: - 12 x BA213/BA440 pedestal VAX systems (MV3400, VAX 4000/200,300,500A, ...) - 3 x R400X storage pedestal - 3 x R215F storage pedestal - 47 x pizzabox VAX systems (MV3100, VAXstation 4000, Infoserver 150, ...) - 22 x pizzabox storage expansion - 4 x lunchbox VAX systems (MV/VAXserver/VAXstation 2000) - 11 x lunchbox storage expansion MIPS stuff: - DECsystem 5400 (pedestal) - 2 x Personal DECstation 5000/25 - DECstation 2100 - DECstation 5000/133 - DECstation 5000/200 Alpha stuff: - 2 x DEC3000 Miscellaneous stuff: - VAXmate PC500 w/RCD31 expansion box - 2 x HSZ40 - 18 x StorageWorks BA350 - 6 x StorageWorks BA353 - DECNIS 600 w/ DNSAN, DNSAM,W614/618,L602 - 5 x DECserver 700 - 3 x DECserver 200/MC - LANbridge 200 - Lots of DEChub stuff - Lots of manuals, cables, spare cards, spare disks, etc... I need to remind people not to send any more donations for the next few months while I sort this stuff out. I won't keep it all, so I'll probably post some messages here in the next few months to sell or give away some of it. Some of it may have to end up in the bin eventually (like storage expansion boxes with broken drives) Does anyone here have any experience with the Professional systems and the VAXmate? I believe the latter is an 8086 system, is that correct? Would the DECNIS stuff still be of use to anyone? Cheers, Camiel

apologies to Chuck G.

by rampaginggreenhulk＠yahoo.com

denigration was nowhere in my thinking when I uttered the unspoken term. In fact I think there's a person on one of these forums that adopted the nickname Chuckster. But in any event it won't happen again.

Cable ID?

by saquinn624＠aol.com

I have two cables that I've been trying to figure out what they're for. They're both commercial, with molded-in ends. The one that I've gotten furthest on is a video/keyboard cable of some sort, 8-ft long, DA-15F on one end with a box on the other end splitting out into what appears to be PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports (Mini-DIN 6, labelled "KBD" and "MOUSE") and 3BNC R/G/B video connectors. If it was LK-style I'd think DEC, as it is I was thinking X-Terminal, but all the X-terminal pictures I've seen have local keyboard ports and more "ordinary" graphics connectors. There is a part number, 012-1369-00, that when Googled comes up as Tektronix 4200/4300 workstation, but again those don't seem to have the right ports. No manufacturer name. Second has no markings. 9-ft 13W3F to 13W3M, which seems simple enough, but the signals are put through two separate cables and the RGBS portion is broken in the middle and there are two sets of BNC M connectors on them. Other pins are wired straight through. Perhaps connects to some sort of splitter?
