HA! Item number:8773655976 I think the "1" goes with the "Meg", not the "PDP" ... i.e. it's a 1MB memory board for later, unspecified PDP versions, not a "PDP-1" part. -----Original Message----- From: Lyle Bickley [mailto:lbickley at bickleywest.com] Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 1:08 AM To: General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts Subject: RARE DEC PDP 1 MEG MEMORY BOARD on EBAY. HA! Item number: 8773655976 Being a member of the PDP-1 Restoration Team at the Computer History Museum, I can assure everyone that this vendor doesn't have a clue (or is a fraud). I thought at first that he made a typo in the title - but no, he also restated "PDP-1" in his "RARE" article description statement. Sigh. Title: RARE DEC PDP 1 MEG MEMORY BOARD BY EMC CORP. Item number: 8773655976 Desc: THIS IS A RARE DIGITAL EQUIPMENT PDP ONE MEG MEMORY BOARD MADE BY EMC CORP.IT IS GAURANTEED TO BE WORKING. I'm tempted to buy it and then tell him I tried it out, and I couldn't make it "fit". ;-) Nah, that's too much work... Lyle -- Lyle Bickley Bickley Consulting West Inc.
