Pretty futile to restore until I have manuals and a load tape if
needed in front of me.

Not futile at all. Taking it apart, cleaning it up, replacing anything
obviously bad, checking out the power supply.... all things you can likely
do without a manual. You could go a little further than that just by asking
a few questions here; folks are glad to help! Think of all the great stuff
you'd learn along the way!! You'd find manuals and tapes at some point I'm
sure!

Unlike you Jay that has a 'mountain' of DG stuff in front of you to
*wicker basket something together from... all I have is this one lonely
rack!

Not sure what you're driving at there, but when I'm done... all I will have
is one lonely rack :) Nothing wrong with that!
Not to mention, there's the "classiccmp law of attraction". Basically if
you
get just part of a machine, the rest will suddenly start appearing :)

BUT! I figure DG sould have some sort of representation here... and
if it attracts MORE DG so be it!Least case it needs a terminal to
display with it and ... yes... A POSTER!
----
Awesome. What minicomputer systems do you have on public display besides the
DG? I'm glad to see more DG representation of course :)

This month's 'make computer work ' project is HP-3000 related.

I'm a bit of an HP fan ;) What's cooking 3K-related?
