You hit the size on the head, 1/4-20. There are three ribbon cables and one small Molex
connector. I recommend labeling the ribbon cables as you remove them (if they aren't
already), or you're going to be tracing through a rat's maze to get them right
again. -- Ian

Subject: Re: Separating a Vax 11/780 from it's peripheral cabinet...
Good to know it's as straightforward as it should
be. This is one of those "Haven't seen it yet, but we are gonna need to figure
out how it comes apart..." kind of questions. I'll see if I can find the
installation manual.
So bring a socket set. They look 1/4-20 or thereabouts. There is
probably a cable we will also need to deal with, that connects the VAX
to the MAP.
