Subject: Rescue of Four Phase Systems mini-computer from Tampa (long)
(From one lover of big iron to another)
The rescue of a very obscure 70s era mini-computer was
accomplished
last
Thursday and Friday. It had been sitting in a storage
shed on a
forsaken
piece of property in Tampa, Florida, for at least 15
years, quite
possibly
20
Nice catch Sellam. Well planned and executed operation.
Looks a bit ratty (sorry, couldn't resist) but I've seen worse looking
stuff still clean up pretty well.
Looks like there's a very good chance it's restorable to functioning
condition.
Best of luck with it.
