I can pretty much support any of the Dec stuff, with
all of the pdp11's
running now the next step is to get the 8/L working, then the 20. The
Perqs and other stuff will be re-homed or sold.
But I'm not giving things to "museums". At this point between museums
blowing up, being shut down, selling "donations" on Ebay and literally
stealing stuff I have a bit of a bad taste in my mouth from so called
"museums".

Fair points... I've got about 80 or so R, W, S, A flip-chips and some 18"
Negibus(?) cables
perhaps I should do something about.
And enough DEC workstation and DEC-compatible mice that I just weighed them in kg.
Cataloging them would be a good start I guess. Also some other old flip-chip backplanes
with more
modules, and a 1968(?) DEC A/D converter and so on. I've traded some stuff for
PDP-11-related items
last year, and I would prefer to swap but I've found that notion does not sit well
with some museums,
to my surprise. Offers to claim as US tax write-offs isn't of any use to me here in
Oz.
