Subject: picked up PDP11/23
Just thought I'd let the list know what I got
today
PDP 11/23 PLUS, with DECSTATION across the front.
RT01 on top, an RT02 on the bottom.
Serial number of the machine is 320 - pretty low :)
Nice catch......
Now, to get the thing running... first I'll have to
put a nail across the
circuit in my fusebox, as I can only run the dishwasher and heater... or
the
TV and the microwave and the fan... or... you get the
idea. The PDP cord
is
10A, so I'm told :)
You probably have a bit of leeway there, DEC boxes always seem to draw less
than they say on the psu labels. My 6000-320 is 3200w according to the
markings, but it only uses about 500.
