ps. I too
am curious to know what the spiky thing is!
Knowing the source, and knowing what they had, I am pretty sure this is a
DEC Unibus backplane of some flavour.
Dammit, spoil my surprise why don't you? :-P
What's the label on the side say? "DD11-DK" is the bog-standard 9-slot
Unibus backplane, but it could be something specialized like an RK611
backplane or something.
Looks to be DDIIPK, part number 70-11523.
There's a smaller sticker reading 2963167/79 (given the date on it of
1979 I expect that's just a factory batch number though)
Curiously the hand-written date's 1/17/79 - so either the board was
built in the US and shipped over here, or DEC imposed US-style dates on
factory workers this side of the pond!
cheers,
