Nice PDP-Stuff available from Michigan State University

************** First Message ************* Greetings from Michigan State University I've got the following group of stuff set to go to salvage and have no idea of the value (if any) that they have anymore. Any information would be appreciated.

Todd Wilson HVAC Services - Michigan State University ************** Second Message ************* I should clarify... These systems are to be sent to salvage complete, and I don't intend to part them out. Of the miscellaneous parts, the H3104s go with the PDPs (2 with the 11/83, 1 with the 11/93). The MAUs and NI cables were a DECNet interface between the two PDPs. 232-MMJ adapters, I have a bunch of generics (bought from Black-Box) along with the actual DEC ones listed. I also have quite a bit of documentation with the PDPs. The VaxStation was procured as a parts machine since it is also QBus and PDP parts were becoming scarce(though we never used it as such). My hope is to generate some interest in them so that someone will buy them through salvage rather than sending them to the crusher. The last unit I sent to salvage was an 11/24, 5 full enclosures, 9 RA-81 disk drives, 1 RA-80, 2 RLO2, and about (literally) 30 RLO2 Pacs. All were crushed due to lack of interest. When I send this group of items to salvage, it will include some LA100 and 120 printers and stands, an RLO2 Diagnostic Pac (RSX11M), and I think I have 2 or three more VTs (if memory serves, VT320s). I might have 1 more RA80 also. My intent is to post back here with details on how to purchase the items through salvage when I send them (within the next week or two). Many have offered EBay as an option, but our equipment transfer rules do not permit direct sale of University owned items. All inventoried materials must be transferred to Salvage for release from the University.
