Subject: Re: Univac rescue
On monday, a crew of RICM faithfuls and friends from RCS/RI visited
International Bridge and Iron in Newington, CT. Our purpose was to
rescue to largely intact Univac systems. The oldest, a 9300 went of Bill
Donzelli of RCS/RI. The other system was a Univac 80, ca 1973, and it is
presently sitting quietly in a storage locker until we can give it our
attention.
A vilely hot day, and it was a bit of shock to realise that the 9300 did
not ride on casters, hence a nasty moving job, but everything was loaded
into the truck in a little over 4 hours, including 3 1710 card
punch/verifiers.
