Thank you all for the information. Ive been speaking with Paul Anderson on
the phone, he went into great detail a general overview on how to get the
machine apart and general beginner details. He referred me to the
appropriate Documents on bitsavers, plan is to pick up some packs of paper
and get them printed out tonight.

Rich,
Can you please clarify if this statement represents the policy of the
Living
Computer Museum or is it something more personal? Perhaps some
qualification
or a re-phrasing would be useful as it does not appear to make sense as it
stands?
I think you may have seen or participated in some of the many discussions
we
have had on this topic on this list? In light of these discussions, I
find it
hard to see how a categorical statement such as this one could be
justified.
Regards,
Peter Coghlan.
