Yesterday, we visited downtown Boston, braving the confusion and
annoyance of the Big Dig, and rescued a, actually 2, Texas Instruments
990 computers. It is believed to be one of the last two still running in
New England.
With the spare boards we have, it is likely the second 990 can also be coaxed
back to life as well.
Later this week, we hope to rescue a cache of Hewlett-Packardss.
