Chicago mini rescue opportunity

The store where I found the Micro-Expander earlier this week has continued to clean out its old location and place systems out in front of the store free for the taking. There is currently a system in front of the store that is too large for me to handle, given my small car and limited apartment storage space. If any other Chicago area collectors are interested, the system is located outside the old location of Sol's Computer Works, at 2820 North Sheffield (about 1 block north of Diversey). It's a Cummins Allison 3400 keyscan system in a full-size rack cabinet with a 9-track tape drive. It seems reasonably complete. I did pick up yesterday's free system for my collection. It's a pdp11/10, complete with 16K words of core memory, an rk05j disk drive, and an rx01 dual floppy drive. It supposedly worked when last used, although I'm going to have to patch together some cables that were cut by the people who claimed the rack before I got there. There was no documentation, however. I'll probably spend the weekend looking through the PDP11 information that is available on the Web - there seems to be quite a bit. -- Scott Ware s-ware(a)nwu.edu NUMS-MPBC Macromolecular Crystallography Resource UNIXgeek "With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine..." - RFC 1925
