The other 1ESS/1AESS switch is a complete and
functional unit, still in
service, last I heard. But there are plans to scrap it and put in a
modern switch in its place. Saving it would be a difficult proposition,
to say the least.
I'd try to get the Smithsonian involved. This is a _very_ significant machine,
of national importance, and a national institution like the Smithsonian should
have one.
Let me know if I can help, e.g. by getting heavy hitters like Vint Cerf
involved.
