What Zuse
you are refering to? There are "many".
The Z22 at the ZKM sholud be complete and and operable. (If the people
at the ZKM have not ruined the machine meanwhile.) It is tube based and
was build 1958. It is a stored program machine for sure. Main memory is
a drum with 8192 words. It is original and has been kept in working
condition most if its lifetime.
We cannot get on this list yet, but have an LGP-30
and Univac 3 which
should be operable. Also Minuteman computer is in the collection.
The Univac was removed from operation and stored. Passed to storage
yard owner, then to our collection. LGP-30 + set of spares may
operate. Again was stored "operable".
I'm interested in the thread given the possibility of having such old
hardware.
