I should have mentioned that this collection is located in Milwaukee, WI.

With the sad passing of Don S last year, one of the
founders of the
Wisconsin Computer Society in the 70's, his window finds she must finally
begin the process of disposing of a basement full of stuff. Don was a
life-long experimenter and user of computing equipment which has mostly
found its way into the classification of "classic." Don and I
used/programmed DEC PDP-11 and Altos CP/M and MP/M machines together at
more than one job.
Here's a list of items that must go. Ideally, a small number of people
would take this collection, so as to not divide it all up and make
shipping/pickup complicated. If the person who wants the Altos computer
wants the disks, I will probably fish out all the Altos, MP/M and
application (not the Milenium Systems disks) and bundle that with the computer.
The drive cabinet can go separately. Anything I suspect is DEC-related can
go separately. The Millenium stuff is probably a separate item as well,
unless someone wants all of it. If there's no interest in this collection
as large units, it will go in smaller chunks to whomever wants it.
She's not looking for money for this material, but can't bear any costs,
so S&H is on you, plus some $$ for packing materials. Local pickup would
be much, much better.
Estate of Don S.
