The Black Hole surplus in Los Alamos was supposed to close Monday, but
they still have a crapload of stuff they are trying to sell, so they
will continue to be open on a weird schedule.
I went down there this Sunday (yes, they were open on Sunday for a
change) to get the 3 Tektronix RGB monitors that go with the Tektronix
4125 that I pulled out of there on my last trip. (Returned with a 5x8
Uhaul covered trailer filled to the top and my car full as well, plus
a little overflow on Will Donzelli's trailer.)
While rummaging around one last time, I pulled out some more odd
non-PS/2 keyboards (VT220, Intergraph, Cray Viking, Amiga, HP 264x), a
Tektronix digitizing tablet w/puck & PSU, some manuals (mostly
Tektronix), a case of DEC fanfold paper tape and 5 cases of punch
cards.
Still remaining down there that might be of interest to others:
- VAX 3500 in the pedestal case
- early model TI Silent 700 desktop
- 8 late model Silent 700s with the snap-on case
- Televideo 921 terminal (no keyboard)
- ASR33 on a pedestal, kinda rough shape
- Tektronix 3621 hard copy unit
- lots of punched cards, NIB, some in case boxes (5 boxes per case)
- paper tape, some of it whole boxes
- mylar tape
- 2x IBM model 26 card punch
- lots of Friden calculators
- several Friden flexowriter desks
- 2x modcomp racks, looks like they were for disks, but the disks are
gone and the wiring harnesses are cut
- lots of chart paper rolls, generally free
