Seen on port-vax...

This came in on the NetBSD port-VAX mailing list. Anyone in the MA area want a VAX 8650? -=-=- <break> -=-=- Date: Wed, 17 Mar 1999 23:02:45 -0500 From: Matthew Hudson &lt;mhudson(a)home.com&gt; X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.0.35 i586) To: port-vax(a)netbsd.org Subject: free 8650 Vax in MA Sender: port-vax-owner(a)netbsd.org Delivered-To: port-vax(a)netbsd.org Subject: GIVEAWAY: Vax 8650 in Medford, MA Date: Tue, 16 Mar 1999 14:23:50 -0500 From: Jason Scott &lt;jason(a)snuh.com&gt; Organization: The Information Access Center Newsgroups: misc.forsale.computers.workstation My company is decommissioning a VAX 8650 with Expansion Unit and while the current plan is to throw the thing into the dump, if there are souls out there who want one of these things for Nostalgia, Spare Parts, or to drop out of a plane, give me a holler at (781)-393-3283 and we'll talk. Or, mail to jason(a)snuh.com works just as well. If you think you can stop by with a Toyota and put this thing in the trunk, you don't want it. Vax 8650's are the size of large meat lockers and you'll need at least a truck to pick it up. The power needs are beyond imagining. The only real use for these things are spare parts or some sick project I can't think of, but I can't bear to not take at least a try at finding them a home. The VAXen are located in Medford, MA, just about 5 miles north of Boston, off Route 93. We're throwing the things out Thursday Night (March 18) so act fast. First call and show, first serve. Thanks! - Jason Scott Thought someone might be interested in this. -Matt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Bruce Lane, Owner and head honcho, Blue Feather Technologies http://www.bluefeathertech.com Amateur Radio:(WD6EOS) E-mail: kyrrin(a)bluefeathertech.com SysOp: The Dragon's Cave (Fido 1:343/272, 253-639-9905) "Our science can only describe an object, event, or living thing in our own human terms.
