Adam, I have a VAXstation sitting about three metres from me. As is usually the case, "it worked when I turned it off 20 years ago" I don't remember how many years ago I turned it off. I think it is a model 30 but casually looking at the box does not show me what model it is. I pulled out the nicad battery pack many years ago and it is sitting by my left hand and it does not leak. I have the system box, the expansion box with its little SCSI disk drive, the RRD40 and its wierd disc caddies, and the VR--- monochrome monitor, and probably the keyboard and mouse and documentation if I look around for half an hour. I have no idea where you are but I can send it to you for the price of shipping which would be astronomical I expect. I hesitate to ship the monitor - that would be had work - but the other components can be managed. -- Richard Loken VE6BSV : "...underneath those tuques we wear, Athabasca, Alberta Canada : our heads are naked!" ** rlloken at telus.net ** : - Arthur Black
