Hi,
I just wanted to let y'all know that I recently acquired a DEC 2065.
I put up a quick web page of how my shop is being reorganized to
accommodate the new "toy". Warning this is not a permanent location
(ie if you link to it you may not find it in a month).

Drop the site from the URL and it will work...

I'm not sure, if I'm jealous, or relieved that I'm not the one trying
to take care of that BEAUTIFUL system!
I'm dreading reconnecting all of the
internal cables, wires, etc. You
can't see them (because they're between the cabinets) but there are
*lots* of thing to reconnect correctly (including massive -5.2v and
-2.0v wires about the size of your "little finger").
What are you going to run on it? What were you running on the KL10?
I never got
the KL10 running (didn't even try). It was stored in a barn
and had lots of "left overs" in it. It would have been a major
restoration effort. It's probably still worth it. I just don't have
the time right now for it which is why I jumped at the chance for the 2065.
I'll probably run TOPS-10 mostly and TOPS-20 occasionally once I get
everything put together and tested.
