Hi Bruce,
My brother in law's estate has a lot of PTP11 stuff, hardware stuff,
manuals and literature. That stuff began to become obsolete and he
could get it for almost nothing at the swap meets and he would come
back with car loads of it. I am not a computer guy, I know nothing, I
mean zero, about the products of the Digital Equipment Corporation
but I would hate to see stuff going to landfill that somebody would
really want or treasure. It would require somebody to inspect all the
stuff to find if there was anything of interest in it. None of us
have any idea of what he had or where it is. It is a real pig in the
poke. Still, if somebody has real interest, have them get in contact
with me and maybe we can come up with some plan. I am sorry, but I
just don't have an inventory of what he has. Nor has anybody else.
