Rescue: Burroughs Redactor Editing Typewriter

From: "Neil Preston" <nrpreston at yahoo.com> To: <jfoust at threedee.com> Subject: Editing Typewriter Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2008 13:40:24 -0600 Are you interested in any further acquisitions for your computer collection? I have an old Burroughs Redactor Editing Typewriter (word processing system) consisting of a wide-carriage Selectric typewriter interfaced to a processor cabinet having two data cassette drives. The user would type their document while it was being recorded on the tape drive, and could later reprint it from the tape drive. There was no CRT. I also have a field maintenance manual and some additional information including a copy of a user reference guide, as well as a few data cassettes and ribbons. As I have no current use for it, I would be happy to donate it to a suitable organization as long as the receiver is willing to cover the costs of shipping. It would probably require crating and truck freight, as the cabinet measures approximately 17" x 17" x 32". I also have a couple of old Beehive model B103 data entry terminals (CRT with keyboard and RS-232 or current loop interface). If you have no interest, please consider forwarding the information to anyone you believe might be interested. If I can't find a home for them, they will be scrapped. I am located near Kansas City MO.
