It looks like a nice set of disks and tapes, hopefully the 360-era
disk and tape channel controllers are there too

Interesting--it really does belong in a museum--it's not something a
hobbyist would be able to usey; even if it was practical (or possible)
to get it running again. The 2020 was "sort of" a System/360, with
halfword registers and a simplified instruction set. (To do any real
arithmetic, you pretty much had to use the packed BCD instructions).
I recognize the 2560 Mother F* Card Mulcher, which brings up some
interesting memories.
