I don't really want to start another "ebay
good/ebay bad" argument, but
did everybody see that an ADM-3A just sold on ebay for $355 US!?!?
I have two in good working and cosmetic condition that I got from a
bank some years ago, including the little panels and screws that cover
the option dip switches. I alos have docs. How many more are out there,
just on this list?
I've got an ADM-5. Obtained under "its been sitting in the junk room
(actually an abandoned old dormitory first floor) for about 10 years
now, my head is turned the other way and I dont know where you got it"
pretenses from the college I attended. Thing's indestructible.
I actually saw a couple of them still in use at one of WorldCom's POP/colo
facilities in Dallas when I had to go down there for an ISP I worked for
a couple of years ago..
Sadly, I lost one of my VT320s to a power outage/surge the other night;
it wont send/receive anymore. I'm down to one 320 and one 420; anybody
got a green-screen vt320 they'll let go cheaply? VAXES MUST HAVE GREEN
MONO CONSOLES.... and my pristine VT102 w/manual isnt going to be plugged
in until I get GOOD FILTERED PROTECTED power. 8-)
