DECMATE I on EBay

I've only seen the CPU paired with the pedestal-mounted RX02s (one set or two sets for two or four drives), sitting on the VT-100-sized Formica top. My DECmate I happens to have a desktop clip on the pedestal where the keyboard tray normally sits, plus the 4-foot-wide desktop that hangs from the clip. It's a really neat arrangement. One of these days, I hope to get a spare set of parts and put a second RX02 in my pedestal. You can dismantle a working RX02 and fit in the PSU, the drives and the boards (leaving out, ISTR, the fan and back air duct), but I have enough uses for rackable RX02s that I probably won't ever bother to dismantle a working unit for that. I still need to find/make a Y-cable , and I'd need to find/make another DB25-Berg-40 board for underneath the Formica top to tie it all together. It's great little system. Once upon a time, I'd hoped to find an RL02 controller for it, but I'm guessing the chances of that are pretty slim now. Good luck to whoever, if someone on the list picks it up. -ethan
