damn, wrong side of the pond. =/
would have been nice to get scsi boxes and cables. probably wouldn't work
on US power anyhow.
spiky thing sounds interesting too. maybe it was to keep physical hackers
away (instead of software hackers)? heh.

I'm aware of the following up for disposal (I think
they're off to
landfill at the end of next week by the sounds of it) in Cambridge, if
anyone's interested:
17 HP Xterminals
5 HP 700RX (Xterminals)
3 Vaxstation 3100
4 Large SCSI boxes
4 Medium SCSI boxes
6 BBC Bs
16 BBC type monitors
4 NCD Xterms
1 HP Entria Xterm
8 Dot matrix printers
1 DEC 3000
1 Sparc 4
1 Extremely spiky thing
1 Olivetti drive of some description
1 huge monitor box of cables
Lots of random software
I should be meeting with the chap tomorrow as I'm picking up some other
stuff from him, so hopefully I can look over everything. I *may* grab
the software and cable boxes just so I can take a proper inventory,
although I have no desire to hang onto anything other than a SCSI cable
or two.
Note 1: this is the *UK* Cambridge (I always put that in the subject,
and people always miss it :-)
Note 2: various people know about this stuff, so it's a case of first
come, first served. I can put you in touch with the chap if there is
anything you want from the list.
ps. I too am curious to know what the spiky thing is!
cheers
