VAX 11/725 "I'm missing my RC25"
Wow, I didn't think anyone used RC25s anymore. I put a couple of carts up
on ebay with the 11/725 diagnostics and VMS 3.5 distro. They came with what
I thought was an 11/730 but turned out to be the chassis of an 11/730
filled with rat dung. The disks however were still sealed in their bags and
seemed to come through unscathed (at least the glass "I've been dropped"
indicators are still clear)

Chuck,
I remember not too long ago those carts were bringing some good dollars. I
used to have quite a few but I traded/sold a few to Shannon Hoskins. (I think
it was Pacific Data) for some other things I needed. I missed out on a RC25 on
Ebay last year when I was on vacation. It went pretty cheap. The 725 sitting
here is in perfect condition except for the big hole in the front.

This came up on the list a couple of springs ago. It should be in the archives.
My collection has about doubled since then but I haven't done an inventory
update for some time. IIRC about 30 or so collection lists were posted. Quite
interesting to see the collecting bias' of the different list members.
The definitive list would have to be John Keyes or Sellams collections.

Did I post a list before? That must've been waaaay back when I actually
could remember what I had (and the number of systems was less than 100).
I am in the process of making a "list", but it's actually an inventory.
It will take several man-days/weeks to compile, and will require an SQL
database to hold it all :)

I believe this topic came up a few months after the list
initially started as well, as I recall people posting their
collections. Mine has grown considerably in the roughly 4 years
since this lists inception!

Thanks for the build up and like Sellam I hope to do a count later this
year. I have to move 11 (full) storage units from MN (a mix of 10x10's,
10x15's, & 10x20's) to Texas over the summer after I find a bigger
warehouse there. The current 1800 sq ft one I have there is full and
overflowing. Last time I was there I had to leave items at the house
there (upset the wife a little) as I could not put anything else in the
place. I hope that about 6 or 7 trips in a 26' Uhaul truck will get
everything down there, the cost is going to be very high to move all
this stuff. If anyone has a BIG truck I can use in exchange for some
hardware let me know. I will start the first trip on June 2nd.
