Maybe it is a dual-box BA23 system. You can tell by looking at
the back of the box(es) where the dual-box system has one (6U) back

Does the rack have extra-thick side panels with cooling fans in them?
That would be the "elephant ears" add-on which was typical for such
a system.

So the questions:
Can anybody point me to pictures of an 11/93 that's NOT in a BA23?
The BA23 is rackmountable. Maybe it is a rack with two PDP11/93's in
it.
What's it worth, obsession aside? It's
probably going to cost me about
$0.50/lb, USD. That's delivered to my garage. I'm guessing that's in
the $200 realm.
I think, the 11/93 is a 20mhz J11 CPU. I've seen the 18mhz J11 cpu go
for well over $100 on Ebay, so I'd think the 11/93's cpu would be worth
quite a bit. Plus, I don't usually hear of the 11/93 on this list, so
that may mean that they are one of the more rare PDP11's. Comments
anyone?
