Today I got back to the other Univac bit, the one that got towed
away by somebody else while I was slobbering all over the 9200.
This is the one that is going to sacrifice some parts to keep
another Univac running. But the scrapper now wants some actual
cash for it, instead of just a few bucks that he hinted at before.
Guess he realized that it still has about the same scrap value
even after he pulls out those few parts...
Anyway, I had the chance to look at it closely, and I _still_ don't
know what it is. I did take notes, and have posted them on a web
page. But (#@!$%) I forgot to bring the camera, so I have no pics
to show. Here is the URL:

Please take a glance at that, and if you can help ID this thing,
let me know. There is also the possibility that it could be up for
grabs, since I already have more Univac than I know what to do with.
I'll probably want it for myself if it is somehow needed by the
9200. Otherwise, it will be available to anyone who will cover the
costs of purchase, storage, shipping, etc. If nobody claims it,
it might get melted down as soon as one week from today.
Bill.
