What I'm amazed at is that I've got several
thousands pounds of
Data General Eclipse S/130's up here
in B.C. - machines with full toggle-and-light front panels - and
I'm unable to give them away. Repeated posts of the hardware lists
to "classiccmp" have yielded virtually no interest, outside of a
couple of truly heroic collectors/preservationists from the East Coast.
I'd love to have one, but there's the usual two problems - one is that
B.C. is a really long way from Maine, and two, storage space (although if
you were on this corner of N. America I'd solve that one).
I've always wanted something with a full panel, but 3 hr drives are
definitely about the limit.
Now, if there was a bucket brigade.....
