This is a beautiful specimen.
On a pinetop worktable with FOUR RX01/02 floppies!!
The only thing about this DECmate I that is out of the ordinary is the
second set of floppies... the pedestal and "pine top" are bog
standard. My DECmate I happens to have the less common full desktop -
one removes the keyboard tray from the pedestal, and replaces it with
a tabletop bracket, then bolts on a 1m x 1.5m desktop that only has
one set of legs (i.e., it would fall over if not attached to the DM I
drive pedestal). One then puts the DECmate CPU on the desktop and
sits with the drives facing the front, on the right side.
Starting at $200..someone please save this!!
Not me... it's too rich for my blood, especially when one considers
shipping (Montana is _way_ too far to drive).
This did not work for me... I extracted the auction number
(5180062401) and searched for it to find it.
