sorry to disappoint you Adrian, but I also have a 17 pieces P1000
cardboard setup. I also have a 2-page (four A4 sides) leaflet that
describes the system (in Dutch), and a (very) old photograph of
the system. It looks in perfect shape, no discoloring due to age.
However, my main interest is my PDP-11 collection, so I am always
looking for funds to improve my collection ... What would a 17-piece
cardboard set be worth? I might want to sell it !
Season greetings,
- Henk

Hi Adrian,
I looked up the Phillips p1000. It looks like with a little paint and
a bit of work, I could make the Phillips p1000 complex look like an
IBM 360 complex. How many of the devices for the Phillips p1000
complex do you have and are you interested in selling it?
Thanks!
Ellis
