The Wang CS was a late 80s incarnation of the 2200
MVP. The MVP is a
microcoded machine that runs the Wang BASIC-2 dialect. It is also a
timeshared system, as you can connect up to 16 terminals (that is what
the 2236 thing is -- intelligent terminals with 8080s in them). The SDS
drive is a 3rd party hard disk made by Southern Data Systems. I would
suspect a cache of manuals and software come with it.
It is located in Southfield, Michigan. The owner
doesn't want any cash,
just wants it gone as they are moving locations. If nobody claims it in
the next few weeks, it will be turned back into sand.
I need to run to Farmington this weekend, and could probably help load
this if someone is interested. I hesitate to offer to store it
temporarily, because space is a bit tight at home right now.
