Well, today
was a truly super find day.
Good Grief, I think that's the understatement of the decade! Nice haul!!!

more tapes, a
portable TU-58, a box of TU-58 tapes, and 3 Vax diags on
BTW, what I found oddly cool after looking at the pictures were the
portable floppy drives. Out of curiousity, what kind of Unibus/Q-Bus
interfaces are included with the RX50?
