What is it? If as you say, it's a word processor, it could be a
Wangwriter, although I hardly think they were THAT big. It sounds like
some sort of early VS, which is definitely a lot more than a word
processor. More people need to save Wang equipment. If it is a
Wangwriter, we're looking for one.

I have been offered a largish Wang word processor system... a
washing-machine size CPU and two slightly smaller 8" floppy units,
several terminals and two printers... no doc or software at this time.
I will get model numbers etc. when I actually get to spend some
time poking around the units.
My question before I actually commit to saving this from the
dumpster is: anybody want it??? I sure don't...
They're *big* and heavy, so shipping is definately a factor,
unless you want to arrange to pick it up, in which case there is a
loading dock available.
Cheers
