I have a favor to ask, of anyone who is able and
feels inclined to help.
There was a CDC 9-track tape drive, said to be a model
696, of the old Cyber mainframe variety. This particular
model might even have been used on one of their non-Cyber
models, but at eighty bucks, I'd like to have it.
But it's in Clinton VA, and I'm in Louisville KY (or
thereabouts).
Is there a lister near DC who might be willing to
pick it up and hold it for, say, up to three years?
Responses off-list, preferred, but not required.
Thanks,
