Just came back with a van full of goodies.
11/750 with box's full of docs and prints.
Early versions of VMS software and New docs in binders.
DECwriter II
DECstation 2100
Box's of brand new sealed magtapes
Spare boards for 11/750's
Software for the 11/780.
Data General 9-track tape drive from a MV20000 series.
RA-92
etc...
I also found a VAX 6000 but I beleive the owner has unrealistic
ideas of what he can get for it.

Way cool! I'd love a setup like that, just don't have room.
I also found a VAX 6000 but I beleive the owner has

Most people that are trying to get rid of VAX 6000's seem to have rather
unrealistic ideas of what they can get for them.

Zane,
I usually pay anywhere from 4 to 10 cents a pound for the
large stuff. He thinks a University is going to come along and
scoop it up for $$$$. I did have one a few years back I received
free from the Kentucky DOT. Never had it running though. Had to
lose it when I relocated to NY.

The sad thing is that no one will pay him the big bucks and push will
come to shove and he'll probably scrap the thing. Nothing worse
that seeing "big iron" go to a scrap yard, IMO.

Jeff,
No, just the drive. The thing is a monster easily weighing #300.
