I told a factory I did not want this stuff last year (I forgot about this
PDP-10). It seems they never got around to scrapping it and the scrapper out
of Georgia never picked it up. I got a call just now to see if I want the
load for .. (well $$).
I don't know if the PDP-10 is still in it... They wrapped the cases in
cardboard and moved them to *stores*.
I was told that there are at least 18 6' computer racks,, the only ones that
the guy on the phone could get at said:
Vax 6000
SA600 ??? (what's that?)
RK05 (or 7)
TU81
Some Fujitsu junk.
I know they paid 5 million for the Fujitsu 7 years ago.
Anyone here know what a SA600 is?
As for the systems, I will probably scrap the Vax6000 (for EBay souvenirs).
I saw one of the Fujitsu boards last year.... nice... most of the chips had
heat sinks on them (ram board).. and they were huge.. Again too new and too
big to deal with.. I'll get what gold I can out of it.
The PDP-10 is the only thing worth restoring (if it's still in there). Will
update everyone by the end of the week.
