Most of this stuff is heavy and bulky, so any local pickup that can be arranged would be strongly preferred. I will deliver to you in the area, but most of this stuff simply cannot be shipped. If there is an individual part or board you want, and you want to pay for shipping, I will do my best to make that happen for you. I will accept any amount of money for any given item, or I will accept no money. If you are in the area or coming here to pick something up, it probably wouldn't hurt to buy me a burrito or something, as its going to hurt to part with some of this junk. My only condition is that this equipment goes to a collector (at least someone who appreciates the item) and not to the junk heap. I have spent far too much time and effort preserving what little I do have to allow this stuff to meet its end that way now. I am in the Chicago, Illinois area. Please contact me through email at devnull(a)pobox.com. Here is a partial listing, I can search for specifics if you like. Best Bet would be to come on by and take a look: PDP 11/04 Computer with unknown boards.
