Ok so this is totally amazing, of course.. but I have to ask..
How was it that all of these items were stored in what looks like a dirt
basement crawlspace under a block of residential flats?
Was the _only_ access through that 20 x 20 (?) portal in the wall?
Why is there a dirt basement under a residential block?
Either way, it's still just a big WOW - and a HUGE THANK YOU to yourself
and the entire crew for preserving such a massive cache of vintage
hardware. History owes you a great deal of thanks for your efforts..

I am envious.
I started out on IBM S/34 & S/36 systems. A long time ago.
I would love to relive the experience, but I think that even if a S/36
showed up on my front door that I could provide the power it needed. The
PC cased baby/36 systems aside.
Congratulations on your new items,
Jerry
