Moving an 11/780 around isn't too bad if you have two people, and you
remove the power supplies.
I moved one into the house after removing the boards, side panels, door,
power supplies, 11/03, and the fans.
Those blower fans are heavy.....

Well, I could
possibly drive out and return with a truck. Possibly I
could haul for Bill Donzelli if he's interested. It is on the way. That
would save at least 2 ZS-1's. We could haul more, perhaps. Do you have
docs on the ZS's?
I am loath to fly, but it might be possible. I need to know if they are
availbale to us, and then I could put the trip together. I did a
truckload from VA/DC/NY just before Christmas. Probably 2 days out, lay
day, load and 2 days back. Or 3.
If we (Merle and I) are going to do this, I could roadtrip out to help
(after all, I want a ZS-1, and would not complain about a VAX-11/780,
either). I need to make a Chicago run soon, anyway. Merle could tag along
on the roadtrip all the way to Madison for the machine loading fun. It
would save you a airplane ride, and you would get to see all of the fun
stuff in the Midwest.
