Wow, that
system looks practically spotless! And is that a LaserBus
machine to the left of it, in the first picture? Looks like a VAX 7000
or AlphaServer 8400 chassis from the rear.
Yes it is the VAX case but I don't recall the model. This photo was
taken a few years back when the PDP11 was part of an exhibition at a
museum here in Auckland. None of the gear was operational and I am
not really sure how complete it was.
Those are nice systems. VERY fast. (both the VAX and the AS8400 versions)
And maybe the
very corner of a VT52 at the far right?
It is indead a VT52. It didn't come with the PDP11 but I am trying to
locate it. It would be a nice companion.
The first rehabilitation step begins this weekend with the power
supply being removed and tested.
Great! Good luck, keep us posted, and take lots of pics!
