My father has 10 or 12 of these terminals that he has no need for. I'm not familiar
with them, would they be of interest to anybody or should I tell him to just scrap them?

They are a classic, and there should be reasonable interest in them
(although alas not much cash value).
Where are you located? I would be interested in 1 or 2 for my collection.
David.

Wow,
My inbox overfloweth..... I've gotten alot of responses so rather than reply
individually, I'll post what I know here:
1) They are currently located in Tewksbury, MA USA (about 30 mins North of
Boston)
2) I am not sure of the current condition. I believe at one time they were
all pulled as working units out of a library and have been in storage for a
couple years. I will try and get more details.
3) I don't think my dad has too much time for packaging/shipping, so I think
he was looking for somebody to pickup locally. If there is someone local on
the list that would want to pickup and disperse that would be cool.
4) The concensus seems to be that these aren't "worth much" (whatever
"much"
is). I would imagine that my dad is trying to just free space and would
like a fair price. I'm sure there are plenty of people here with an opinion
of what fair is, so have at it.

$20 each is fair. A little less ($10-$15) if they are in crap condition,
a little more ($25) if they are in great condition.

If/when someone does pick these up, please keep me on the list for one
or two! :)
I'm located in San Jose, CA, so I won't be volunteering.

I am attempting to make arrangements to pick these up in the near future
[next (not this) weekend]...
All interested parties, please contact me off-list david(a)dynamicconcepts.us.
Make sure ADM3 is in the subject.
Individual pricing will (probably) be based on the condition of the units. I
will fire up each one and run basic tests.
