Stuff available: PDP-8 desk, Masscomp

I have to get rid of some of this bulky stuff that I'm not getting much use out of... I have a PDP8 desk (sunken area for console, rack under the left side) that I was using for my PC workstation but have since built another desk that holds more equipment, so this one is now surplus. The power controller that came with it is available depending on how much you want to offer. I never had the computer itself; I found this desk at ASU surplus several years ago. I found a picture of it on the 'net a while ago but have lost the link. I have a Masscomp of some kind. It's dusty now and I haven't tested it, but a friend unloaded it on me a couple years ago and told me it worked the last he knew; it has a hard drive and floppy, and a lot of serial ports. It is mounted in a rack about 4' high, which is half-empty. I have a lot of manuals and disks etc. for it. I was told this is an early real-time Unix system using the 68K processor. I live in Phoenix, AZ and you would need to pick these up. I'm open for offers of any kind on either of them. Please email e_cloud(a)yahoo.com; I will try to check the list but I'm subscribed in digest mode and will be more likely to notice if you email me directly. ===== . _______ Shawn T.
