Looks like I forgot to mention, this is all in a commercial building in
downtown Lafayette, IN, USA, zip 47901.

This is what I'm attempting to get rid of from my
warehouse. I
would like to get something for the machines, but mostly want to
make sure that the stuff doesn't get scrapped. Everything is
assumed to work, but I have no guarantees that it does, and it
hasn't been turned on in quite a while, but it has been stored in a
climate-controlled warehouse. I'm open to some trades, and
negotiable on prices for most stuff. I'm not willing to ship
anything myself, but may be willing to drop it off somewhere to be
shipped - I mostly don't have time to pack this stuff. Email me for
more info on any of this stuff.
For the most part, this stuff needs to be gone by May 14th- when I
leave for Dayton Hamvention. I may be able to bring smaller
(desktop box) stuff with me, but larger stuff I won't be able to
transport to the show with everything else I'm bringing. Some of
the stuff will start disappearing at the end of next week via scrap
or eBay if I don't hear anything by then.
+ VAX 8700 w/ TU-81+ and SA482. Haven't had a chance to power up,
and will keep this if I don't get a good offer. Want around $500
for it. + DG Nova 2 w/ PERTEC 9-track tape drive and dual 8" floppy.
Asking $750, this will go to eBay if I don't get any takers. + DG
Nova 4. Have 3 or 4, some missing the front-panel. 3rd party
Disk/QIC tape rackmount box that goes with them.
+ BA-11 10.5" tall UNIBUS expansion boxes. $25 each
+ SGI Onyx prototype machine. The same size and chassis as a
Challenge XL. $100
+ PDP-11/23 w/RL02s in corporate cab. $200
+ RM-02 drives. I have 4, want to keep at least one. Never had much
luck getting them to work with my RH-11 on my 11/84, but I don't
think there's anything wrong with the drives themselves. $200 each
+ VAX 4000/200. I have two or 3 of these. $100 each
+ DEC CMR53. 2 of these. A pdp-11/53 system with some special
communications cards in them. $100 each
+ AlphaServer 4100. $20
+ Various VAXstation 3100s for whatever I can get for them
+ 4 tape drives from IBM 3480-B22 tape units. I've considered saving
this for spares, but I'm not sure I care enough.
+ IBM S/390 G5 coupling facility. I'd really like to find the
replacement software for the SE to make it into a "standard" CPU, so
that I can at least run Linux on it, but I'm not sure that's likely.
$200.
+ Encore Mulitmax UNIX box. 32 x NS32332 processors and 128MB ram,
and a 2nd rack with a 9-track tape drive and some 8" hard disks.
$250. + General Automation SPC16/40 and 16/45. Missing the front
panel for one of the two, have an I/O box, and PSUs. needs some
repair work. One of the PSUs needs new capacitors. Will keep unless
I can get $500 or so for the both of them.
+ HP 1000 E-series, I think. Two of these. $200 each?
+ IBM RS/6000 SP. I've got one frame with quad-375MHz POWER3-II thin
nodes, and one high node (16GB ram, 16 x 375MHz). $200
+ DEC VT240 terminals. Probably 10. $5 each
+ IBM 9343-C02 DASD box. I have someone interested, but haven't
heard from them in a while, and am not sure how interested they
really are ... I'd like to get $100 for it.
+ Two Amiga 2000 Video Toaster boxes. I may end up keeping one.
$100. + Various IBM UNIX desktop systems, desktop VAXes, etc. $5
each. + Altos 8000 and 8600 systems. $10 each.
+ Tektronix 4010 terminal. $100.
+ Tullamore/Victoreen SCIPP 1600 1600-channel pulse-height analyzer.
Powers up, but not tested much more than that. Looks cool, and has
CORE memory inside. $50. Some pics I took a while ago:

That's all I can recall for now.
