I'd be interested, especially if you're actually at university of chicago as
I can pick it up. I'm a big time DECie and would love to add this to my
collection.

Subject: good home for a DEC VT-180
My employer has a DEC VT-180 with keyboard, disk drives,
printer, software, cables, and manuals, all in original boxes
with original packing slips, sitting unused on a shelf.
Where should I look or who should I contact who would be
interested in it? Several local and national computer
history museums and centers have politely declined our offer
already. Ideally the recipient would have some use, either
practical (data recovery?) or educational, for it; my
employer would prefer it to go to a home where it would be
used and/or publicly displayed, rather than sitting idle in a
private collection.
This is in the Greater Boston area, and we are unlikely to be
able to package and ship it.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Ariel
