Adrian, what order of volume and weight are these?
I'm definitely interested, from a general preservation viewpoint, also a personal
interest in
lesser-known OS. And I have some PDP-11 systems to restore and play with.
However I'm in Australia...
Britain has a nice 'media mail' option - I buy 2nd hand books from British
abebooks.com dealers,
and postage to Australia is very cheap. But could that extend to these manuals? What box
size?
Could you send a photo or two?
Btw, can anyone suggest links to overviews of DEC (and other?) operating systems evolution
and influence over time?
Regards,
Guy

Hi folks,
I've held onto this collection of manuals for the last 3 years and now they really
need to go because I'm having to move house in the next 2-3 months, my landlady is
selling up. I thought it was too good to be true being in this house for 7.5 years!
The RSTS manuals are V10 (1990) and there's 3 RSX-11M V4 as well as RSX DECNET. I
don't have the time to scan them myself otherwise I would've done ages ago.
I'm heading past Jim Austin's place in a couple of weeks' time so if nobody
else is interested I can drop them off there if he's up for it.
Cheers,
