Is either the 8/L or the 11/35 just the bare unit or is it in a rack?
I can probably justify shipping costs if it's just the unit.
Wish this has been posted a month ago when I was still in the area. xP

Hi All,
I'm helping a friend, Barry, with clearing out his collection of
computers, manuals, etc. He has a lot. Here is an initial list.
-- a Digital PDP-8L
-- a Digital PDP-11/35
-- a Data General Nova 1200
-- at least two Deskside Solbourne systems (these are Sun Sparc based
multiprocessor computers), spares, and the installation media on CD-ROM
for
the special version of SunOS they ran.
-- At least a dozen Sun Sparc1 and Sparc2 workstations
-- lots of DEC desktop VAX, Alpha
-- lots of q-bus pdp-11 systems and parts, several BA-23 (perhaps as many
as a hundred cards)
-- a number of IBM RS/6000 systems
-- a number of HP 9000 systems
-- still more sparc workstations including at least one each sparc-10, one
sparc-20, one ultra-10, the "lunchbox"
-- a variety of screwball laptops including two Tadpole sparcbook laptops
-- at least two early 68K macintosh laptops, appletalk and an ethernet to
appletalk bridge
-- everal 9-track tape drives (not to mention tapes, including a Unix V7
distro tape)
-- an AT&T 3B1
-- an Anderson-Jacobsen serial printer (based on the IBM Selectric
mechanism)
-- A Digital PDP-11/70 in the "blue" trim (blue and white switches) in a
double-wide corporate cabinet
-- lots of IBM PC type gear, spanning many generations.
-- lots of computer-ish books.
-- Ancient software (Ashton Tate DBase IV, maybe?)
-- A Livingston Portmaster
-- A Gould Biomation K100D and a Gould Biomation K101 logic analyzer. I
have service manuals for the K100D, and enough cables for one or the
other.
-- Lots of S-100 cards and parts including both Z80
and 8086
-- An Imsai 8080 S100 system with the lights-and-switches front panel
-- An Ithaca Intersystems S100 system with the lights-and-switches front
panel
-- An Altair 8800 system
-- A Seattle Computer Products S100 system (this is what the original
ms-dos was developed for by Tim Paterson )
-- A SAGE II 68K with CP/M-68K
-- A Sun-2 in dual deskside cabinets with a Fuji 9-track drive
-- The Siemens equivalent of an ASR-33
Let me know if you are interested. Some of the bigger items can't be
shipped. We are in Santa Cruz, California.

I'd be interested in any parallel (interface to computer through a parallel interface)
keyboards, and S-100 based video/graphic boards you may have.
Thanks

Hi Philip, All,
?For everyone who lives far away.. I would encourage you to consider flying out to look
through Barry's stuff and buy a bunch in bulk, and then ship it yourself. ?There is a
huge amount of unlisted items, and we don't have time to list and parcel it all out.
?You'd likely do very well, and cover the travel cost.
-Gary
