Hi Jim,
Do you still have any systems and/or peripherals left? I'm looking
for a PDP-11/34 Model A or C (Preferably C) with the Octal Programmers
Console and Digital Display along with peripherals. Please let me know
what you have. Would you be willing to accept monthly payments
because I'm a disabled vet and get paid within the first week of each
month? I have a pickup truck and I'm coming from the Cleburne, TX
area. Would be willing to meet you half way. Looking forward to your
reply.
Most sincere and all the best,
Scott

Oh, speaking of KE11-B's, does anyone have either the Technical or User's manual
for it (I couldn't locate either)?
It appears to be a program-compatible re-implementation of the KE11-A, on a
single hex board, but it'd be nice to confirm that, and find out more about
it. E.g. does it go in a MUD slot? (Yes, with the prints, I could eventually
work out the answers to most questions - the prints do contain the PROM
contents - but I'm lazy... :-)

This is listed under the informative title "vintage computer":

which leads me to post it here under a more informative title, hoping that
someone here has a soft spot for Primes!

Ooops, my mistake; the coverage is much wider than that (they default to
DEC). On the home page, there's a pull-down menu labelled "Company",
which lists over 100.

Here:
http://wwcm.synology.me/pdf/KE11-B%20Arithmetic%20Unit%20Engineering%20Draw…
It was in someone's clone of Wilber Williams' Computer Museum (UQ Museum of
IT), which is indeed in Manx's list of sites they included. ('.me' is
Montenegro, and Synology is some Taiwanese tech company.) The whole list is
here:
http://wwcm.synology.me/scanned.html
They have a lot of good stuff (I just found an MD10 brochure there, which is
AFAIK the only piece of MD10 documentation left in the world, other than a
section in a PDP-10 manual). I need to go through it and see what else they
have that I'm missing...

Here's the link the the VSI "Legacy" documentation page.? The Ada there is V3.5 for Alpha but if you want VAX I would think that it's close.

Yes; thanks!
I don't know it didn't show up in my Web searches - I tried a number of
different things, no luck.
Also, http://manx.classiccmp.org/ (which is the medium-old URL I had for it)
redirects to something that has no working link to Manx; probably ought to fix
it to go to the new location.
