I had heard of some of the ESS systems that used the PDP's, and not the
3B's. The seller appears to have really old CO equipment that has
broken down, and the bits may not be related. Much more interesting
than a bunch of TIE switches, or such, but only just.

Knowing nothong about the 5ESS, other than recognising it as the name of a
telephone switch, I looked it up.
I found mention of 3B20 processors used in the 5ESS, but not of the 11/84.
Where does the 84 fit, just out of curiousity (or were you just commenting on
the other material and not meaning to imply any connection between the 84's and
5ESS)?
