OK, now that I have your attention, an odd question...
How often do we reckon that a freebie big machine (PDP-11, VAX, Eclipse,
and so on - NOT micros) gets posted (or crossposted) to this list? Once a
week on average? I suppose I could scan the archives and do all sorts of
studies, but that sounds like WAY TOO MUCH WORK to settle my curiosity.

I would guesstimate that I get somewhere between 6 and 10 "here take this
old mini" emails from outside this list that I post here for others to
take - per year.

New subject: New items to search for
Hello everybody.
I've arranged finally my basement, including all the computer equipment,
manuals and magazines collected from all these past years. Well, arranged
in a first stage, because now I must do some other additional works, like
installation of tables, more electrical cabling, etc... and some cleaning
of computer stuff too :-)
I should like to locate and/or purchase for the next months these items if
appear in some moment. I prefer to do the transaction in UK/Europe, by the
way.
* One Teletype ASR (33, 43) with paper tape reader/puncher.
* One PDP8/E (or similar) and/or PDP8/A
* One Decwriter
* One HP1000
I should like to locate too one Cromemco, Zenith/Heath, Compupro, or similar
system, but I see this complicated.
Regards
Sergio
