How much room are we talking about? My garage is pretty empty (2 car
and I only use it for my 1 car).

P.S. I'm new to the list... it's so great to find such a wonderful
list for discussing old equipment... just makes me wish I had owned my
house years ago when I had things like Data General Eclipse machines
and had to dump them for lack of space.

I'm salivating but just don't have a place to house a 6000 in a full
cabinet
(unless it's the smaller version for space-constrained people, a
smallish
rackmount XMI card cage, but those were rarer than hen's teeth), let
alone two
of them.
Is it the kind of thing that's headed for death in a melter if no one
takes it?
If someone else (with a warehouse for his computers) can take them,
great, but
if no one does and they head for scrap, can you please take out all
boards (I'm
interested in all XMI and all VAXBI boards, the TU58, and any other
boards/parts
that may be there other than the huge cabinet that I unfortunately
can't handle)
and let me (or other interested people) have them?
