I was given an 11/870 last year in november and since i'm not into DEC systems,
I advertised it here as available for pickup...no body seemed interested so it
went to the scapper in January.

The factory is being levelled in middle November
and anything that is left
will have the building dropped on it. (I did however find out from a prior
purchasing officer that the systems I am pulling out are:
Vax 11/780 - yuck, I'll trash that.
Oh nooooo! My favorite toy. The 11/03 external 32 bit Virtual Memory Unit
and high speed floating point.
At least pull the 11/03 and RX01 floppy drive unit out and save them.
The unit is serpentine QBus and I'd love to have one of these
(even wouthout the Vax)
If you have deep pockets to buy every computer
mini they find in an old
factory then you can score quite often.

Three things never anger: First, the one who runs your DEC,
The one who does Field Service and the one who signs your check.
