Rat's turns out she apparently isn't a dealer,
and doesn't have any mini's
or main's :^( Sounds like she's interested in getting one though. Somehow
I doubt she's interested in preserving it, more likely realizes it will
fetch a higher price with the scrap dealers >:^(
It might be a good idea to keep her business in the back of your mind, and
perhaps bother her every so often (after all, she bothered you). If she
ever gets any 20+ year old mainframes, I think a few of us would probably
give her scrap value for it (a small S/360 is worth several hundred
dollars, and it would be immediate cash - no labor to rip it apart!).
Speaking of mainframes, I might have a pair of eyes to check out the
Burroughs stuff in a week or so!
