No, the original email I got from the owner just said "UK". I have passed the
deal on to an active listmember to follow up on, so he will probably post here when he
acquires the gear and let us know the details. I'm curious myself!

Just out of interest, did you hear where it is in the UK?

FYI - I forgot to post; this deal has been claimed; it
was passed on
to the first person that replied off-list. Hopefully that person can
consummate the deal and will post back to the list to let us know the
real scoop on what the guy has.
Best,

I don't think anybody who had worked for DEC would confuse an 11/23
with a microvax.
The reference to RX01's also seems a little odd.
Testing silicon could be a reference to IC's or the large crystals
drawn from the melt.
As to being used in house in the UK. Both plants (Ayr and Galway) were
F,A and T plants Boards and enclosures came in already built and tested.
They would plug the systems together to suit the customers configureation.
If a board failed it would be sent to Hoofdorf in Holland where they
had a board level repair facility.
This was mainly for field service swop outs but they did handle F,A
and T failures.

I offer for your collective
consideration my guess that it's a case
of someone mistaking the label on a panel for the device inside, and
the system, whatever it is, has acquired mixed labeling.
