Hi All,
While going through someone's collecting heritage, I found some
paper tapes for PDP-9, PDP-12 and PDP-15 systems. From what is
printed and/or scribbled on them, it looks like bootstraps and
diagnostics tapes. Some are DEC-original.
Does anyone want these, and/or who can read and archive their
contents? I know nothing about these systems, soo...
Cheers,
Fred

Yes please for the PDP-9 and PDP-15 stuff. I suspect others will want
the PDP-12.
Electronic images are fine if you have the facilities to read the tapes,
otherwise I'd be happy
to pay cost to sending to me in France.

Fred,
You might want to bring them to the US next week and loan them to Al Kossow so
he can archive them.

This is what I'd recommend.

Hi All,
You might want to bring them to the US next week and
loan
them to Al Kossow so he can archive them.
OK, will do. This will actually NOT make
KLM scream at me, for
once :) Since I do not "do" anything with these systems, are
there any PDP-9, -12 and/or -15 collectors who would want to
take these, after Al copies them?
Cheers,
Fred

Robert Garner has both a PDP-12 and PDP-15 and he's local (San Jose area). I
suspect he'd want them for sure.
