The man behind that page is 79 and has a
fascinating history in the
computer industry here in New Jersey. Apparently he is aware of our
local computer museum (only a 20-minute drive from his home), but
never followed through. I called him just now, and spoke with him
and his daughter. He wasn't aware that anyone my age (34) still
cares about all this, let alone a whole group of people in our
club/museum. So, I respectfully ask that classiccmp'ers give us some
time to keep his collection local.
Wow, he really wasn't aware that people care about it? I hope you
explained to him that it's quite a big hobby nowadays. I know more
people who collect vintage computers than I do cars.

He said a lot of his other electronics and more modern computers
sold,
but he thought nobody much cared about his DEC tape drives, Northstar,
EAI TR-10, 3DMa, etc. ..... I explained to him that as far as we're
concerned, that is the GOOD stuff. But it's even more important to save
record his personal history. Maybe the cctalk'ers in northern
California are used to this, but here in NJ we cherish people with such
rich history when we can find them. :)
