New subject: The guy who threw out the 11/70 (was: Vax 8600 on Ebay)

   I thought this
would be a good canidate to post to the list.

 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2042185013

 Is the seller or bidder here on the list?  
 That's me. I like big iron, but it is just too big for me. There are other
 vaxen that are still cool but are smaller and more compatible with my home's
 electrical feed. I have a 730, for instance. It needs a new home. I was
 waiting to see if someone was going to post a link to it. :-)

 I don't really expect the bids to go very high. eBay is just a way of
 getting the message out. What would be really cool is to get some PDP
 hardware in trade for it, but it is more important to find a good home for
 it. 
Speaking of which, this week I talked to someone that threw out
a PDP-11/70 as they couldn't find anyone that would take it.  I
told him that if I'd known I'm sure someone here would probably
be interested.

He's going to join the list soon.
