I just got word from a friend that a company in Kansas City is planning
to dispose of the following.
DEC VAX 785 in three 6' cabinets
DEC PDP 11/70 in ten 6' cabinets, this may be two computers
4 RM03 disk drives
2 TU80 tape drives
Other disks for VAX
That is what they remembered without actually having a list.
I'm trying to set up a time to actually see them.
Here is the other information I have received.
There is a company from Topeka that will take them away if they are paid
to remove them.
The 785 was running 3 months ago when they erased all of the media.
It has been about a year since the 11/70's were on.
They are not currently running.
They are checking on the legal requirements that they may have to go
through to dispose of these units.
They are worried about making sure they aren't legally libel if somebody
dumps them improperly.
Whoever takes them away may have to be a GE approved vender.
I'll keep everybody informed.
Thanks
Mike
