Hi,
I wanted to let you folks know that I'm getting pricing on having some
cosmetic parts made up. Here's what I'm going for:
* 11/20 front panel plexis. These will be the original colors and
be an exact replica of the original 11/20 front panel plexi. It
be identical in every way to the original (except that it will
look *new*).
* H960 header panel inserts. Right now I'm getting quotes for the
blank magenta/red and the D|I|G|I|T|A|L PDP-11 inserts.
However, I also expect to be able to have produced the
yellow/brown and PDP-8E inserts as well. Note that these are
*not* the plasic header panels but are the inserts that go in
them.
As soon as I have pricing I'll let y'all know. It should be in a couple
of days.
OK, I *just* got the pricing in (gulp!) on the above items. Because of
the $'s involved, I'll need to have a quantity of firm orders before I
can go forward. Here's the pricing I expect to be able to do:
* 11/20 front panel plexi - $150
* H960 header panel inserts - $25 (doesn't matter if it's the
PDP-11 or the blank). The PDP-8/e versions will be the same
price.
Here's the rub. For each here are the quantities I need (these are
*firm* commitments):
* 11/20 panels - 25
* PDP-11 version H960 header panels (or blank magenta/red) - 50
* PDP-8/e version H960 header panels (or blank yellow/brown) - 50
If I get more than the above quantities, I can probably do a bit better
on the pricing.
Because of the way that the header panels are being done, a mixture
within a family (PDP-11 & blank magenta/red or PDP-8/e & blank
yellow/brown) count together towards the total (ie 10 PDP-11 and 40
blank magenta/red *or* 12 PDP-8/e and 38 yellow/brown).
E-mail me directly indicating if you're interested. Please be aware,
that if you send me an e-mail, I'm going to hold you to it! I'm doing
this to help out the community, but I don't want to go broke in the
process so if not enough folks are interested then I'll not do them.
I'll let you know if/when I've collected enough interest to go forward.
Please be prompt as the quotes do have an expiration date! :-)
Thanks.
