In other words: SCORE!
Well... If someone actually wants a *REAL* PDP-11/03, and can pick
it up locally (I will not ship it), they can contact me. I'm in the
Portland, Oregon area. I have three that came with my /23. I've had
them for about 10 years, and have never even tried to power them on.

I've done the obvious thing on bitsavers but whats
a good place to
start exploring with this unit? There's no drives or console with
it although there is a large ribbon cable attached to the M8639
card. It also has a serial cable so one MIGHT be able to connect a
console to it.
Never had access to anything like this so it's all new.. The goal
obviously is to assemble a complete system.
Suggestions comments recommendation all welcome!
What part of the world are you located?
