Hi Robert!
They are definitely on the rarer end of the scale. You'll remember that I
got mine from you a few years back. :)

New subject: RAREST, Westinghouse 1600 or GE 550?
Back in my steel mill days I worked on a Westinghouse 1600, and I think the
other systems around the place were GE 550, but those were more controllers
than mnis, the 1600 was a fairly powerful multiterminal mini. I remember
the 1600 as core memory and fully discrete logic, not a computer for
general users, but a fast fortran industrial machine.

New subject: RAREST COMPUTERS.... (Computer Automation)
Computer Automation seems to be rare. I have only seen one of their smart
printer interface modules mis identified as a Logic analyzer probe on ebay
at all.
I do have access to someone with a stash here in OC. CA got big on an
automated test system they sold to a lot of companies around here, including
Microdata back in the early days. Later cloned or duplicated by HP on
the HP-3000.
