Some machines available...

I just talked with Harold (Harold Olmstead) and he wasn't kidding when he said it was a LARGE collection. It sounds like the total collection is somewhere in the 3+ semis full of computers with, volumewise, about 20% being mainframes, 30% being minis, and the rest micros along with monitors, printers, etc. He also has a lot of documentation and software to go along with some of this stuff. I wish I lived next door!!! He is moving to New Jersey and would like to do something in the next month or so. He indicated if anyone is interested, to just give him a call or email. He has talked with a number of other people and while he doesn't currently have a list of these computers, will start to put one together with the things he has. Trying to move a collection that large is not financially feasible for myself, but if anyone else here on the West Coast is interested, I'm willing to co-ordinate whatever is necessary to bring some of or all of the collection back here. I told him I would post a note to that effect here on the listserver so he would be aware of what might be going on, and it was fine with him. It is difficult to do anything without a list of the equipment involved, but hopefully that will be forthcoming!
