DEC Consultant's Reference Guide

[ I've been trying to organize the backlog of cctalk ] [ mail sitting unread on my server... ] Way back in September, Dan Veeneman wrote: I might. I picked up a lot of them along with RT-11 docs when I picked up a VT103 and DSD disk/tape box many years ago. However some of the manuals fell victim to a large basement flood a few years back - over 15" of water in that section, when we got about 5" in 5 hours early one March. Frozen ground doesn't absorb much water, and I had *just* moved the home datacenter down there after watching for flooding for a couple years. Figures. Haven't had any flooding to speak of before or since. I haven't gone through them since the crisis, and I'm sorry to say some may have molded up so bad before I could deal with them that they may have been pitched. I'm gearing up for a cross-continent move, so don't look for any news on this other than an inventory of what's left as it gets packed. There was a bunch more stuff, going from memory, than the company history. In particular it included system configurations from the period in question. I recall seeing the first generation of VAXen, pdp-11s, and a number of DECSYSTEMs in there, along with software and whatnot. --Steve.
