Pictures needed for my recyclers

I now have over 40 recyclers across the country looking for items for collectors. Below is a list of what is being asked for. If you want to add to the request list, that is fine. The scrappers are asking for pictures. Remember that to them, this is just junk to be parted out; they are unfamiliar with the equipment. If at all possible, PLEASE send me a LINK to a site that has a clear picture, maybe some discussion about the machines in question. The stuff I look for is very general terms...ESCON and FICON are the names of the interconnects used to connect the machines to their disk arrays. ESCON is older (but still common) and FICON is current. The earlier one, called "Bus and Tag" or "Parallel Channel", is also something I can use, but they're very old and much less common. Models to look for are 3880, 3990, 3390 (much older), and "RVA". These will typically be biggish, very heavy cabinets containing drives and a controller. MicroVAX 3400, 3500, 3800 HSC50, HSC70 Any whole or parts of VAX 11/780, 11/785, 11/725 VAX 6000 RA9x, RA60, TS11 drives Any software and manuals for VAX machines If you don't know how to test, they request that you NOT even try to power the equipment on; they will buy it as-is. IBM PS/2 Model 70 A21 (specifically) IBM PS/2 Model 90 IBM RT PC 6150 IBM XT 370 Sun 386i SGI Prism Memorex 1270 Terminal Control Unit (used on IBM mainframes as an alternative to 270x TCUs) Memorex 620 (2311-11 equivalent), 630 (2311 equivalent), 660 (2314 equivalent) or 3660 (2314 equivalent) disk drives or the DEC OEM versions, the RP01, RP02 or RPR02 disk drive One terminal I have been looking for specifically for quite some time is the Ann Arbor Ambassador I'm always on the lookout for a Durango Systems "Poppy" PC It's unlikely because they were unpopular, but a specific Amiga I'm casually looking for is the CDTV - the one in the black "audio component" case. It's essentially an Amiga 500 with CD-ROM that looks like a VCR or stereo receiver. If you didn't spot the Commodore logo, you probably wouldn't notice it was a computer if you saw it in a stack of stuff. I am looking for scientific and industrial minicomputers from the 1960s and 1970s with "switches and blinkenlights" front panels. Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) PDP-4, PDP-7, PDP-9 PDP-8 and older PDP-11 models with the blinkelights Data General Nova, Honeywell, Modcomp, and others as well. I'm specifically looking for these machines from Computer Control Company (3C), likely labeled Honeywell (after an acquisition): DDP-24, DDP-124, DDP-224, DDP-416, DDP-516, H316. These are large machines in 6-ft racks or 4-ft cabinets. Also Datacraft 6024 and early Harris machines. Probably a longshot, but I'm still on the hunt for JC80 series equipment that was made by Johnson Controls. The JC80 was a building automation "computer" that was made in the 70s/80s. I also wouldn't turn away other old Johnson Controls stuff from the 1980s or 1990s such as JC85, DSC, old Metasys, etc. My father once serviced these systems so I'm very familiar with them. They are not the kind of thing that anyone who collects old computers would likely want, so I suspect that 99.9% of them have been scrapped long ago. I'd be willing to pay scrap value plus 10%, which probably wouldn't be all that much anyway since these things are big heavy steel boxes and racks with a lot of empty space inside. Because this sort of stuff is so specialized, I wouldn't expect anyone to test it, and in fact it would probably be safer not to try to test it since it would need repairs and maintenance before it would even be safe to power up. For me, non-PC keyboards are important - pre-ADB "Classic Mac" keyboards or Amiga, especially Amiga 1000 keyboards in particular. I'm big into Commodore, so anything pre-C-64 is also interesting (PETs, VIC-20s, disk drives, some printers). Old external disk drives (single-sided Mac and any Amiga) are also useful and interesting. a complete Royal AlphaTronic PC system - with monitor & at least one of the floppy drives. This is what it looks like: http://vintagecpu.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/royalta.jpg IBM 3174 desktop controllers Any VAX mainframe computers, or any old DEC 6' cabinets that are populated. Big Blue IBM machines Cray super computers Other large old interesting monsters, let me know what you get in?
