Here's a note that I spotted on the Sun Rescue mailing list: --- Begin Forwarded Message --- Date: Thu, 1 Feb 2001 19:47:07 -0600 From: Steve Hatle &lt;shatle(a)vue.com&gt; Subject: [SunRescue] PDP 11/34 in Twin Cities Sender: rescue-admin(a)sunhelp.org To: rescue(a)sunhelp.org Reply-To: rescue(a)sunhelp.org Message-ID: <000001c08cba$0d1883d0$3201a8c0@thor> All who are interested in DEC, The local Lockheed/Unisys surplus store has a PDP 11/34 available. It's part of a "Dicomed" system that was apparently used to create microfiche film/prints- there's a bunch of stuff like cameras, etc that are with it. I don't know much about this vintage of DEC, but there's an 11/34, 3 DEC disk packs (19" by approx 12") a DecWriter, a 9 track tape drive and all the film crap, housed in approx 3-4 5 foot racks. Apparently it was all in working order when it was pulled- they outsourced the film biz. The guy at the warehouse knows nothing about it beyond that. When I asked him what he wanted for it, he just said it would go "cheap". I would guess a couple hundred bucks would get you the whole shootin' match. The more you take, I'm sure the cheaper it would get. <grin> If anyone wants more info, let me know, and I can pass on contact info.
