FYI: also there: 2 LP27 lineprinters, 1 TU81-plus tapedrive
I was able to swing by Bob Donovan's company on the way to a
family function and took a few pictures of the VAX 6000. He talked
a bit about apparently three other parties trying to take the machine
and giving up. the machine is weeks away from the scrapper. I will
be going by in about a week in a normal hatchback car to pick-up
what I can.
Since the *entire* interior of the car, seats included, is about the size
of the VAX, I will dismantle it to accomodate. Alright Jokesters, that's
the VAX, not the car. This means that the other 1/2 of the machine is
likely going to be scrapped, even though it is in better shape than my
car.
Just to let you know. If there is another thing I can do, let me know.
It's a 6100.

The shipping charges from Conneticut were too rich for
my blood so I'm
hoping one of you will be able to save this machine.
