Perhaps I could bid for the system, but any other person must get it. I live
in Spain. If someone authorized by me can go (in my name) and later refunds
me the money I have no problem to try it.

PLEASE! save this from the scrapper!
The Computer History Mueseum has one of these and one of the stops I made
last
month was to one of the last field service guys who
maintained those
systems
and picked up all of the documentation, field diags,
and a complete set of
cards that he still had left. I'm hoping Mike (corestore) will be
interested
but it is a BIG system, as you can tell from the
pics.

There is a B1955 mainframe system on Ebay right now, with just about a day
